Another day spent pretending
That I'm okay
Another night crying
Trying to wash the pain away

Days blur into weeks
And then months eventually
Never finding what I seek
Here I sit, miserably

I watch as my life falls apart
And my dreams slip through my fingers
No one told me it would be this hard
Over me, a dark cloud lingers

Faking a smile, pretending all day
No longer able to act, crying all night
I tell everyone that I'm okay
No one takes notice of my plight
