She used to

She finally let go
Of the fake smile she wore
As tears fell she whispered
"I don't want to be me anymore"

She used to be happy
Smiling all the time
She used to actually mean it
When she said "I'm fine"

She never used to care
What people would think or say
She used to tell herself
Tomorrow's another day

No one knows why she cries
No one really cares
She even pretends to smile
Because the truth she doesn't dare

She used to be strong
She never gave up
But now the stinging is sharper
With every single cut

No one knows
What she does at night
Alone with a blade
She gave up the fight

The fight to be happy
The fight to be strong
The fight to be good
And never do a wrong

She finally let go
Of the fake smile she wore
As tears fell she whispered
"I can't do this anymore"
