Blood may be thicker than water, but family isnt always blood.


Nobody knows the real me

No one knows what I’ve been through

If you do then you see

Why I dont show the real me


Everyone thinks they know me

Except you don't see 

The fake smile I put on

Everyday, everynight, all the time


You cant see my pain 

Or the things I've done

Or all the mistakes I’ve made

You can't feel my emotions 


You can feel your own

Don't end up blaming me 

For all your pain

That ain't the real you


And neither is my

Fake smile

Past, and everything I’ve done

The real me 


The things I've done 

Have a real smile, and find love in myself

Now you see thats the real me
