Behind My Laughters

Morning sun rise up
Coffee in a cup
New leaves from the branches of trees
Cold air passing by me, I embrace
 
Clear like a blue sky
My face seems as I passed them by
Laughter, sweet smile are sort of happiness
But right inside, I’m dying and wanting to rest
 
You came along, you brought me there
The place where nobody care
You got me drop back on that unknown place
You’re gone and go along with someone else
 
Where is the promise?
Where is the plan?
You let me go, all was gone
Like a bullet in a gun
 
I missed the moments we've shared
Sitting in the grass, pointing the bird
But I was drawn with all your lies
Got me broken in a surprise
 
It’s not easy to let you go
‘Cause my heart will always love you
But need to accept we’re not meant to be
‘Cause SHE owned your heart TODAY!
 
You’re now newly wed
And already have a kid
You left me broken
You left me in pain
 
Pretending to be happy
But it wasn't anyway
Feelings changed
Thanks to my Friend
 
But when I’m alone
Reminiscing is going on
Smiling outside, crying inside
‘Cause behind my laughter, sorrows hide.
