I’m the girl, who hides behind a smile everyday.

I’m the girl, who has a tough exterior.

But that’s not who I really am.

I’m the girl, who has a lot of problems,

But doesn’t share one thing.

I’m the girl, who keeps everything bottled up.

Sometimes I just need someone to talk to. 

Someone to care about me.

Someone to listen to my problems.

Someone to hold me when I cry.

Someone to love me.

Nobody knows the real me.

Nobody knows what I go through everyday.

Nobody knows what I have to do just to make it through the day.

Nobody knows that I’m the girl who isn’t who I say I am.

And I’m the girl who will cry herself to sleep every night.
