I can fake a smile,
I can force a laugh,
I can sing and dance if that's what you ask.
I can hide the tears,
I can mask the pain
I can come out of hiding if that's what you ask.
I can shelter my heart,
I can distance my feelings,
I can keep secrets and silence if that's what you ask.
I can shatter my hopes,
I can burn all my dreams,
I can turn away from you and them if that's what you ask.
I can be true,
I can be blind,
I can hide my true self and thoughts if that's what you ask.
I can say goodbye one final time,
I can do it all now,
I can end it all and watch it burn if that's what you ask
