Hush darling you don't have to speak
There's pain in your eyes and it make a you look weak.

2am and you're chasing back time
Hoping your past doesn't haunt you this time.

No matter how broken, how tired, how grey
You don't let them see, to them you're okay.

Nobody really cares so you make yourself look strong
But beneath your empty surface, everything is wrong.

They don't see the scars or hear the piercing words
Because you put on a smile and you laugh through the tears.
