Today, I'll tell you of the Untold
Something I've kept hidden for years now
Something I've lived with for so long
It's gradually becoming another part of me;I'm the boy who lives nearby
Always alone and never happy
So I once wore a mask that always smiledMy smiles hid my frowns
My smirks hid my tears
And my laughs drowned my screamsI always seem so happy
With not a care in the world
But nobody really knows meI just wish I could let it all out
Open up and let them know what's under
Let them know what's hidden deep insideIt's been this way for ages
But things aren't really how they look like
When I walk down the road
I make sure my confidence showsBut when I'm out of sight and all alone
Hot tears mist in my eyes
And flow down my unloved cheeks
And I feel empty, scared and weakWhen people see me and my façade
They always paint a false picture of me
You should know that many things go untoldAnd things aren't how they seem like
They think I've got it all
But the truth is that
They have never seen me fall
And they have never seen me breakAlways trying to please everyone
But never thinking of myself
With all my heartaches and insecurities
I've cried so many tears and had so many fearsSome call me an introvert, others an anti-social
Sometimes I just want to smash their faces in
So they can finally shut the hell up!Day by day I'm falling apart
And so I've decided yet again
To put on my mask and wait
For someone I could call my own
Someone to love & care about meHiding behind this mask and faking my smiles
Hoping one day I can truly smile
Hoping one day I can truly be happy
Till then I'll be here...waiting.
