You see the fake me
You still think it’s me

You see the “happy” me
You still think it’s me

You don’t see the real me
But you still think it’s me

You don’t see the real me
But you still think it’s me

I have a story
You do not know

I have a truth
That isn’t there

If you knew my truth
It’d make you think

Maybe the things you said
Were not fair

If you knew my truth
You’d see the pain that I lack

If you know my truth
You’d think I’m lifeless

Because of the emotion
I do not show

If you knew my story
You’d know how I feel

You’d look at me
And see the pain

That is slowly escaping
From my brain

So next time
Please think

So I don’t feel the pain

I have scars
I have lies

I have truth
Behind the lies

Behind the scars
You can see clear skin

Behind the lies
The truth and the scars

You will eventually see
The pain that I'm in

There’s a war inside my head

One side says dead
The other says live

There’s a war inside my head

One side says eat
The other says starve

There’s a war inside my head

One side says be happy
The other says cry

There’s a war inside my head

One says be fake
the other says be yourself

There’s a war inside my head

One side says you’re strong
The other says you’re weak

Did I tell you
There’s a war inside my head

I hate my life can’t you see
The pain in my eyes
when you look at me?

I want to be done
But I can't just yet

my story isn’t over
I’m almost done

My life is a pain
I want it to end

But my story isn’t over
This isn't where it ends

In life I can do great things
Eventually I  WILL win

But I have to know
This isn't where my story ends

You've seen my scars
You've not heard my story

You've heard my lies
Not my truth

You've seen me cry
But have you heard my worry?

You think you know me
But do you really?

You think I’m living
Is it cause I’m breathing?

You don’t know that I’m dying
You don’t know how I’m feeling inside

You see the fake smile
You think it is real


But if you’d look into my eyes
You’d see the pain that I feel

If you’d look you could see
The pain that’s in me

If you’d just look
Maybe you understand
The pain that you see

If you just look you might see
The pain that is dwindling in me
