Look me in my eyes and say you don't see the pain.

Tell me you dont think I cry everyday.

Remind me that "it's all gonna be okay."

That this is just another phase.

You tell me that I'm strong , to keep my chin up and pray.

But you don't know the thoughts that are running through my brain.

At the end of the day I feel alone every single way.

All these scars remind me of when I couldn't see the light in the dark days.

I don't let people see these tears running down my face...

 

I let my pride get in the way.

Put a fake smile on my face, and wipe these tears away

and act like everything's okay, but in reality I'm drained.

I dont put my trust into people cuz I know one day they'll walk away.

I reminisce about the days I had my best friend here to say

"Baby Girl wipe them tears off your face and be stronger than the demons in your brain."

I would cut to heal the pain.

The feeling of the blade runnin down my skin takin all my thoughts away

 

I'm misunderstood because of the way I heal my pain.

So I hide the way I feel with a smile on my face.
