Pretend that I'm happy
Say that I'm fine.
But it's only hardening.

This heart of mine.

Numb every feeling
Each one that comes by
I don't feel positive
I can only barely cry

I only feel sad.
And hateful of myself
Sometimes I feel mad

~Version Two~

Pretend that I'm happy
Pretend I'm okay
Numb all my feelings
Push everyone away
