And fall off her nose,
She cries in dark corners,
Where nobody goes.

From her eyes to her chin,
Years upon years,
Of letting them win,
Her eyes tell a story,
Of anger and pain.
You think she's happy?
Just look again ...
The scars of her past,
Under her clothes,
A network of places,
That nobody knows.
Her smile is painted,
A master of disguise,
And you can see it all,
Just look into her eyes.
