In life we have things that cause us pain
Love, hate, and feelings of great disdain
We hurt from dusk til dawn
Thinking we can't hold on
Pain in your chest, pain in my heart
Pain in their head, tearing us apart
It kills me to think of how it will hurt
Making us feel we are less than dirt
The throb of pain makes one cry
Putting us through this, we don't know why
Sometimes it just happens that way
And there is nothing any of us can say
Look over there, can you see what I do?
They are going through this pain too
We are not as alone as we may believe
There are people out there who will deceive
If you look around you will know
There are others who will not show
The pain they hide, just like you and me
But open your eyes and you will see
You really don't cry alone, there are those
Who look around make sure no one else knows
We hide our pain from those who might see
That we might be as weak and they seem to be
We don't want them to know of our plight
Of the silent tears that fall every night
We hide it so well, we cover it with lies
We try to fool everyone with our disguise
But they don't buy it, neither do we
We try to hide it so they don't see
We don't want to be thought as weak
Because they wouldn't listen when we speak
We make ourselves seem so strong
But what we don't know is we are wrong
We aren't in this alone, we never will be
Because those we see and just like you and me
