• She smiles sweetly
    To hide her fear
    To hide the pain
    That is always near

    Her stomach aches
    From being sad
    She wants to stop
    Feeling so bad

    She wishes the world
    Were a happier place
    That way she could put
    A smile on her face

    Will no one notice
    The pain that’s inside
    Can no one see
    How much she’s cried

    Wanting to be happy
    Wanting to feel free
    Tired of pretending
    There’s no misery

    What will it take
    for people to know
    that the smile she shows
    is actually fake

    she has the world fooled
    thinkin she’s pleased
    with how her life’s goin
    Can they be so naïve.

    But someday soon,
    someone will see
    and notice that there
    is no bright moon,

    to light up her misery
    To fade away pain
    and make her really smile
    once again.
