I am drowning in a sea of nonexistence
For I am fading
but no one can see it
I am empty inside
There is nothing left
All they see is the broken shell
Of the girl I have become
So I put on a smile
And don’t let them see
What’s missing
I don’t let them see
How everything I try to fill my void with
Comes back out as a spray of *****
How my emptiness is stronger than any substance
Stronger than any pill they choose to fill it
I don’t let them see
Anything but my smile
And my lies
I can’t help it
For as they say
All the world’s a stage
No wonder I’m acting
