On the outside I may be smiling
but on the inside I am crying.
On the outside I may be sad
but on the inside I am breaking.
This is what this life does to me
Makes me mysterious.
On the outside I may be laughing
but on the inside I am frowning.
On the outside I may be pouting
but on the inside I am shaking.
That's what this life does to me.
Makes me mysterious.
I'll appear as happy as a clown
Yet I'll be dying truthfully.
I may say to you
"I am perfectly fine"
Yet I am actually screaming.
The only difference is you can't hear it.
Hold me in your arms until your muscles ache.
You're one of the few people
that makes me smile throughout all of me.
