Inside my heart is a wreck,
Tears continue to fall
Over an empty heart.
Outside, I smile
I laugh
While inside I am dying.
No one can see
No one can hear.
I am trapped Inside my own body,
The body I call a home.
I try to get out
To show my true colors
To let people hear
To let them see
Just what I am.
I can't.
Everyday
I put on a show
So they don't worry
So everyone else is happy
They laugh while I suffer.
But what can I do?
Everyone must be happy
