Behind a smile

by pilar ann   Dec 4, 2006


I smile away the problems
thats what they've always known
i kiss away the rain
my laughters never blown

i stand strong like a pillar
I'm never going down
the stones will never hurt me
i stand out with my crown

i live a life thats full of sweets
bitterness never cease to exist
my smile wills all hurt away
and that they believed and here they say...

... she never drops
... she stands her ground
... she never cries
... she'll stay homebound

with smiles they're fooled
with a mask thats glued
with this life i live
that of which i made them believe

but they never knew
of what I'm living through
and they'll never know
coz.. they'll never know

that...

behind this smile
i live my life
behind this smile
i cry and hide

they'll never know the lies i live
they'll never know the pain i keep
coz they believe in what they see
they never looked inside of me

my smile is plastered
my mask is glued
but if you look deeper
you'll clearly see

I'm torn, I'm broke
I've drowned, I've burned
I've died, I've cried
and this i hide..

behind a smile..

GREAT job
