The Chorus Of Laughter
All The Day Long
People Smiling, People Smiling
As No One Notices She's Gone

She's Always Was The Last One Picked
And Forever Will Be
Sitting In Her Own Corner, A Lonely Island
Of A Dangerous Playground Sea
Everyday She Dreads The Sunrise
Bringing Another Day Of Shame
People Laughing As She Messes Up
After All, It Was Always The Same
She Didn't Even Let Her Shoulders Droop
Or Her Head Hang
She Just Put On Her Strongest Mask
To Face The Day Again

Then, One Day She Disappeared
Completely Out Of The Blue
She Was There, Then She Wasn't
Where She Went, No One Knew
Washed Up On The Beach
Of The River Nearby
Was Where She Was Finally Found
How Could A Girl So Young Die?

Her Mask Had Hidden Every Tear Every Pain
She Had Ever Had
She Almost Had Seemed To Be A Happy Kid
None Realized How Things Had Gotten So Bad
Next Time You Fell Like Putting Someone Down
Just For Your Own Amusement
Please, I Beg You, Think Again
Is It Really Worth It?

The Chorus Of Laughter
All The Day Long
People Smiling, People Smiling
As No One Notices She's Gone
