Strange song about love. Don't really know where this came from. Please review or rate.
My smile, it shows,
When you're around.
So you don't worry,
So no one knows.
But watch me,
When I'm alone.
The tears show,
From behind the veil.

I want to be happy,
It's what others see.
But the feelings I show,
Aren't my own.
If only you could know.

My smile, it shows,
To hide my frown.
I pretend to laugh,
And roll on the ground.
But watch me at home,
behind closed doors.
The tears they fall,
Seeping through the wall.

I want to be happy,
It's what others see.
But the feelings I show,
Aren't my own.
I can't let them show.

Around my heart,
There are these walls.
I hide behind them,
So I don't fall.
Not even for you,
I can't do it again.
My heart too broken,
There's nothing to mend.

I want to be happy,
It's what others see.
But the feelings I show,
Aren't my own.
I just feel so alone.

The smile it shows,
Now there is no pain.
This smile is true,
And it's just for you.
You mended my heart,
From beyond recognition.
Now I am whole,
And I see this vision.

Now I am happy,
Can't you see?
You and me are old,
I'm not alone.
You're always there,
And you always care.
