This girl, she’s crying inside,
But all anyone see is smiles.
This girl, she’s hurting inside,
She lived like this for quite a while.
Always hiding her pain inside,
She won’t ruin everyone’s smile.
This girl, she’s breaking down inside,
But all she does is smile…
Through those eyes deep inside,
Holds a lot of misery.
Playing pictures from her mind,
Showing her past, her history.
She doesn’t want to remember,
But the pictures continue to play…
Every night she prays,
Wishing them away.
But this girl lies with her laugh,
And hides behind her smile,
So no one can see her pain,
Her past, her denials.
This girl, she’s dying inside,
Although no one may see her pain,
Just continues to smile bright,
From day to every day.
This girl whom I love so deeply,
Cries behind her eyes,
But all anyone ever see,
Is blinded with a lie…
With her beautiful smile she gives,
For everyone to see,
Anyone and everyone,
Anyone but me.
Dedicated to Ana Le.
