Everyday I put on a smile, And act like I'm okay. I act like i didn't cry myself to sleep The night before. I look act strong on the outside When I'm really crumbling on the inside. I act strong for my friends So they don't worry. Even though I would love to know If someone really did care. I act like I think I'm pretty So my friends won't tell me I am. I act like I already ate So they don't force me to eat. I try to be the real me But I can't. My life has become nothing but One big act.

The Act
Everyday I put on a smile, And act like I'm okay. I act like i didn't cry myself to sleep The night before. I look act strong on the outside When I'm really crumbling on the inside. I act strong for my friends So they don't worry. Even though I would love to know If someone really did care. I act like I think I'm pretty So my friends won't tell me I am. I act like I already ate So they don't force me to eat. I try to be the real me But I can't. My life has become nothing but One big act.
