Behind My Smile
I got to pretend that I am ok, I can’t let them know my heart is breaking. I give everyone that fake smile and I cover my face with bright colours... my real mask ...they can’t see me...they can’t see my inside; I won't let them ... all I do is smile but I am breaking
You ask me how I am ...I just lie ...and give them that phony smile ...they don't really care...I just dress to impress in my flawless heels and bright colour lipstick …they can’t tell I am breaking... I am so good at pretending; they don't care all I need to do is give them that picture-perfect smile...they look at me and say… she's ok ...I am so good at pretending.
