No One Knows
My family and friend look at me
As a happy woman
but they don't know
In the deepest part of me
Lies the pain of life
They don't know
That every smile and laugh
Is agony deep here in my heart
Every comfort that I give
Is a trouble here in my heart
Many says I have no problems
but they don't know
Here in my shoulders
I carry the heavy obligations
Of being a breadwinner
Many says I am innocent
But they don't know
Deep here in my heart I learn a lot
To fight the hardship of life
Just to survive
Many says I am simple
But they don't know
I have a lot of dream
To free myself from the obligation
I carried long time ago
No one knows
That I want to go home
Tell my mother about my problems
And let her comfort me
Every time I fall
No one knows
That in a small room I'm renting
When I'm lying there at night
And no one is around
Tears keep falling in my eyes
