Do you know what hides
beneath this smiling face?
A pain deeply concealed,
from another time and place.
Do you know what's kept hidden
and completely out of view?
So much loneliness and suffering...
Things I never wish for you.
Can you tell if these eyes
have ever shed a tear?
There's been so many -
they've become as countless as my fears.
Can you see the broken heart
that has yet to forget?
Torn into a million pieces,
leaving only sorrow and regret.
Do you notice the mask,
I use to conceal all my despair?
Placed to show a happy face,
hidden secrets and pain - all the things I can not share.
