Put on

When everyone is around
I don't let on
I don't make a sound
How I don't wanna go on

Lost so much already
Don't wanna lose more
Put on my face showing I'm steady
The one everyone adores

It's funny I a sad way
How no one seems to see
Put on an act all day
Only showing little bits of me

People wonder why I'm so quiet
It's cuz I feel empty inside
Do the best I can to hide it
Go to my happy place and hide

Put on "my smile"
When someone asks if I'm okay
Feel like I can run a hundred miles
But no I'm not is what I wanna say

I'm seriously contemplating
Everything I'm really hating
Trying not to shove
The ones I love

Wondering if I should say something
Tell this girl how I feel
Before the door is sealed
But then I remember I'm nothing

Know I'll never belong anywhere
Think it unnerves people when I stare
Sorry I want something I can't have
This feeling is like a draft

I may fry
But will never cry
Though I wanna die
I'll just put on my lie

Damn life is stupid
So is the man-child Cupid
Close my eyes
Say my goodbyes

Doesn't seem possible to be so alone
In a room full of so many people
If you looked through a peephole
All you would see is a drone

If I died no one would dare
Even give a care
Cuz all the while
Put on a fake smile
