She smiles and laughs as if nothing is wrong
She acts like she's happy and confident and strong
But inside she's broken and lonely and sad
She hides all her feelings and thoughts that are bad
She pretends that she doesn't care what they say
She pretends that she doesn't mind being alone every day
She pretends that she doesn't need anyone's love or support
She pretends that she doesn't have any dreams to abort
But sometimes she wonders how long she can keep up the lie
How long she can fake it before she breaks down and cries
How long she can ignore the pain that's eating her alive
How long she can pretend before she gives up and dies
