It's the facade you see
Hanging with a few stitches
Sitting by the sea
I can feel it on my face as the breeze pinches
The last episode of a tragedic serie

Inside I'm crying
Outside I'm smiling
Sick of trying
But no one notices
All the blemishes
All the scars
Perfectly hidden behind the bars

The bars that are rooted deep down

It's hard to control this
When all I do turns a mess
When you see me walk by
It doesn't look like it but deep down I want to die
Thoughts racing through my head
Then comes the tears that I shed

Inside I'm crying
Outside I'm smiling
Sick of trying
But no one notices
All the blemishes
All the scars
Perfectly hidden behind the bars

The bars that are rooted deep down

How can I just change
All the tears and rage
When I lost all courage
You say you understand
And all I need is a helping hand
that may be true
But first take a walk in my shoes
You see sadness, angers, and unbearable pain
And you'll walk away full of nothing but shame
And I can't get it out of my brain

Inside I'm crying
Outside I'm smiling
Sick of trying
But no one notices
All the blemishes
All the scars
Perfectly hidden behind the bars

The bars that are rooted deep down

As time moves slower
my indifference gets lower
And the hole in my heart gets deeper and shallower
All I wanna is escape this world
Go back to how I was before or just move a mere step forward
But for now I'm comfortably numb.
