What do they see....
A strong woman
Accomplished
A confident survivor
Good mother and sole provider
Pretty, Outgoing
Sweet, loving, and giving
She has them all fooled
her true soul is hidden
No one can see
How she's covered in scars
Always hiding, she's no super star
Just a scared little girl
in this great big world
She can no longer escape
In a bottle of ***** or pills
She has to face her life,  has to pay the bills
She's just a prisoner Inside her head
The masquerade is hard to keep up
When you can't leave your bed
She puts on her face,
To start the day
All she wants, is to run away...
