The smiles on my face hardly show whats inside The laugh The grin The slowly fading smile They show the happiness that i do not possess This happiness Created Morphed Twisted for the good and satisfaction of others But inside The pain and sadness are uncontrollable Yeah, I can control the outside I've learnt that trick So teachers and friends stop the questions The reflective comments Which lead me into a world of pain and sadness The world where my inside comes out The world where shrinks and counsellors analyse Debate And break the vows of privacy, which they swear to, for our own safety I'd rather be hurting in silence anyway I'd rather that than complain Bringing others down No need No point No reason to upset the people of today With the problems Struggles Battles of my heart and mind But sooner or later It always shows The true feelings of mine Hidden on a daily basis Hidden for the protection of others But eventually they take breathe Like a drowning whale after a long deep swim When i'm alone When i have time to think And no-one to help me stop Thats when the pains show themselves To me To anyone around that cares So, to no-one else Because no-one cares And so, Like a prophesied event, A prophesied lifestyle of choice and regret, The pain of love The ever known 'rhetorical' Just simply wins again

Fake Smiles
The smiles on my face hardly show whats inside The laugh The grin The slowly fading smile They show the happiness that i do not possess This happiness Created Morphed Twisted for the good and satisfaction of others But inside The pain and sadness are uncontrollable Yeah, I can control the outside I've learnt that trick So teachers and friends stop the questions The reflective comments Which lead me into a world of pain and sadness The world where my inside comes out The world where shrinks and counsellors analyse Debate And break the vows of privacy, which they swear to, for our own safety I'd rather be hurting in silence anyway I'd rather that than complain Bringing others down No need No point No reason to upset the people of today With the problems Struggles Battles of my heart and mind But sooner or later It always shows The true feelings of mine Hidden on a daily basis Hidden for the protection of others But eventually they take breathe Like a drowning whale after a long deep swim When i'm alone When i have time to think And no-one to help me stop Thats when the pains show themselves To me To anyone around that cares So, to no-one else Because no-one cares And so, Like a prophesied event, A prophesied lifestyle of choice and regret, The pain of love The ever known 'rhetorical' Just simply wins again
