That girl who always smiles,
She's crying deep inside.
When you think you really know,
Well newsflash honey, you don't.
When she says "I'm fine"
Please don't believe her lies
She'll never tell you why
But at least give it a try
When she says "I hate myself"
It most likely is true.
So please be there for her
And tell her to not be blue
That girl who always clowns around
And makes everybody laugh
Believe me when I say she's unhappy,
I know 'cause she is me

That girl who always smiles,
She's crying deep inside.
When you think you really know,
Well newsflash honey, you don't.
When she says "I'm fine"
Please don't believe her lies
She'll never tell you why
But at least give it a try
When she says "I hate myself"
It most likely is true.
So please be there for her
And tell her to not be blue
That girl who always clowns around
And makes everybody laugh
Believe me when I say she's unhappy,
I know 'cause she is me
