Smiling the world away ..

Smiling The World Away
_______________________

I saw you standing there today
And I watched you for a while
You were laughing the world away
But I felt the pain behind that smile

All the tears that you were hiding
Showed their sorrow in your eyes
Pretending for everyone you were OK
Covering the truth with your daily lies

I heard you screaming inside
Longing to let your tears go
I saw how you tried so hard to hide
cause no one ever needed to know

Alone with your killing pain
I saw you laughing the entire day
But your eyes told me you were getting so tired
Of smiling the world away ..

° They'll never see the pain you're hiding .. But I did .. °
