The Truth

On the outside she smiles
But really she just done crying
She is the happy one trying to save everyone else
But inside she's secretly dying

She laughs all day long
But she's just trying to stop the tears from falling
Everyone sees who she pretends to be
No one knows that every night, she lays on her bed bawling

She knows that no one cares
She knows people will give up on her
So she is now her only friend
Everyone who knows her stares and whispers

All she wants is to be herself again
All she wants is to be who she used to be
She just wants to be ok
All she wants is to be pain free

She wants to be perfect
She wants to be pretty and thin
But she knows that she never will
She's fighting a fight she knows she'll never win
