The Song of a Dead Girl

brOKen Smile

You see this smile
Can't you tell?
This life I live's
A living hell.
I smile so brightly,
I just want to yell.
You try to save me
But I already fell.

You see this smile
I do it for you.
I don't want you to see
The pain isn't new .
My eyes, they sparkle
You think the happiness is true.
The sparkles must be joy,
But no, its the tears shining through.

You see this smile
As real as can be.
Not the slightest clue
Of what's underneath.
I don't want to hurt you,
I don't want you to see.
I'm trying to save you from seeing,
The pain that's killing me.

You see this smile.
But when will you know
This happiness,
Is just the lie that I show.
