Pretending

I'm sick of acting
And putting on a brave face
I'm sick of hiding
From all this disgrace

Why do I pretend
Like nothing is wrong
When I know that it is there
And has been for so long

I don't know how to deal
With the pain I carry within
Sometimes I cry to let it all go
But sometimes I can't hold it in

I just let it all go
And release me tears
Only because I know that
No one really cares

I'm sick of feeling alone
And pretending like I don't care
But really all I want
Is someone who is always there
