These words are real

I have problems
Problems i've never shared
Ihave secrets
To tell, i'm way too scared
I have troubles
But i keep them to myself
I don't lie to get attention
These words are real

I stay quiet
Sometimes when i'm upset
I observe
I stay to the side of the set
My body is a temple
I keep myself to myself
I don't lie to get attention
These words are real 

My lifes not that good
Not quite as good as it seems
I'm misunderstood
They think i'm happy
But a smile isn't happiness
They don't see behind the scenes
I don't lie to get attention
These words are real.

Other girls lie
For people to know their names
Other girls die 
For people to feel the blame
This is how they play the game
But i keep myself to myself
I don't like to get attention

I've seen pain 
Harder than i've ever born
I won't say the name
There far too tired and worn
They'll never lie to get attention
These words are the truth
Influence by them, these words are real.

I change the subject
To avoid sharing my pain
My friends don't see i'm upset
But on myself i put the blame
They don't know me well enough
But how could they?
For i keep myself to myself
And i don't lie to get attention
These words are real

They make up sad stories
For people to share unworthy pain
Get worked up over boys
So much it drives me insane
I have more to worry about than them
But i don't lie to get attention

These words are real!
