Let's smile
To hide our pain

Let's smile
Even if it's fake
It will be real in a while

At least, that's what everyone says

But I've been smiling,
For quite a while

Is it working?
I still taste bile

Still, I have to believe
That one day I will be whole
I have to keep going
Until I'm in control

Let's smile

I wish I could be
the ocean,
rise and fall
everyday,
love and break
everyday,
scream and whisper
everyday,
bury and give
everyday,
shatter and heal
everyday,
I wish I could be
the ocean,
rise and fall
everyday.

Let me see your scars
you hid for a long time

Let me see your wounds
so I can place gentle kisses to where it hurts most

Let me see your pain
so I can feel how you feel

Let me see your face
that has forgotten how to smile

Let me see your flaws
so I can accept who you really are

Let me see your problems
so I can lift it up for you

Let me see your smile
like it's made for the world to see

Let me see your hands
wave 'em so I know you'll be alright

Let me see you shine bright
so I'll know how to find you in this world full of darkness

Let me love you.
for the rest of my life.

My heart is now in so much pain.
My tears are falling like pouring rain.

I can no longer sleep a full night.
I can no longer fight.

We broke each other's hearts.
We were torn apart.

We are no longer together.
What happened to forever?

No one can save me from the dark's might.
This time there will be no light.
I'm not going to fight.

There's no reason to.
When I did fight, it was for you.

I know I never did show how I felt.
Just believe me,
every time I saw you,
my heart would melt.

Just know...
I loved you then,
I love you still.
I promise
I always will.

I don't know why
we had to say our goodbyes...
but I'll love you till the day I die.

My heart is broken,
but I still have hope.

One day
we might get back together.
Maybe next time will be forever.
