My quiet hell seems peaceful
If you are on the outside
I sink deep into my shell
and return to it to hide
I hide behind a smile
and it seems to work
for a little while
but it fades to a smirk
then it fades completely away
and the truth comes out
at the end of the day
So I hide in bed so no one sees what I cry about

I hide in what looks like reverie
But its only a mask for misery
