I keep on smiling

by hatty   Aug 20, 2006


Walking round, lonely face in the crowd
Listening to the voice in my head
Whispers and tells me to head for home
And screaming you'd be better off dead!

You think you know how I feel;
but you don't
go ahead put me down;
break my dreams
I look in the mirror see the shattered dreams;
of the girl I used to be.
The girl you see;
thats not me!

The smiles you see on me are all fake
There to hide the pain my secret to keep
A secret of desertion and heartbreak
But that's something I hold hidden deep

You think you know how I feel;
but you don't
go ahead put me down;
break my dreams
I look in the mirror see the shattered dreams;
of the girl I used to be.
The girl you see;
that's not me!

Rain is cascading in my heart
I keep on smiling
Death flows temptingly through my veins
I keep on smiling
Hurtful comments are thrown my way
I keep on smiling
Voices in my head tell me I'd b better off DEAD!!!!
[Silence]
[1 backing vocal carries on no music] I keep on smiling
