Each day as the sun starts to set
the ache builds up in her chest
she comes home and hugs her tear stained pillow case
when no one else is around she is wasted away
she cries for the pain that she has found
and screams without a single sound
others see her in the day
and thinks shes doing a-ok
but everyday as the sun sets down
she enters her own upseting pain that she has found
time hasn't healed her pain at all
or quieted her tears from her every day fall
so everynight alone in bed
she sheds those silent tears of dread
she hides her problems behind her smile
and behind her smile is a world of grief
everyone thinks shes doing ok
but they have no idea of her everyday pain
the funny thing is that no one knows how much shes hurting
many people stand beside her
and is fooled by her calming smile
she smiles through her silent pain
and cry s behind the closed doors of shame
she drowns in her own pool of sorrows
will anyone notice if shes gone tomorrow?
why doesn't anyone look past her fake smile?
who knows she could even be worth their while
