If you look at me
You might see
The girl you see, isn’t me
Behind my smile, I’m falling apart

Look into my eyes
And you might see
Behind my laugh is a broken heart
Everyday I wear a mask
Look closely and you will see
That this, this isn’t me

I am invisible
I am me
I am a girl that no one can see
I put on a fake smile
I try to push through
But I am a girl
Whose existence feels untrue
