And at school I smile, it may even be the brightest
And at school I laugh, it may even be the loudest
And on the bus, I may be chatting, excitedly
Almost as if I have not a care in the world
But then at home, it washes over me
Like a dark shadow devouring me
The sense of loneliness overwhelming
Cutting deeper each time, I am fading into the wall
I hate the feeling, but it controls me I am too weak to resist
So at school I keep on smiling
I fake my happy, hyper self
I pretend to laugh like I do not care
Then at home I cry, alone.
