Faking Happiness
-------------------------

A fake smile can mean anything.
A forced laugh can create the illusion of true peace.
You wouldn't know what goes on,
You've never felt the way I felt inside.
You wouldn't know the beauty of a slash.
You wouldn't know it feels to relish in your own self-destruction.
You wouldn't know anything,
You don't know what it feels like to be broken.

Do you know how many things I wish I could change?
Do you know how many moments I would erase?
I'm broken, I'm bleeding,
Do you even care?
I put up this illusion so that you don't see,
So that you don't see me.

Fast forward to now,
I'm cracking and my skin is visibly shaking.
All you see is an intelligent future,
Not the fuck-up I actually am.
You wouldn't see this.
You wouldn't see the scars.
I cover them up so well.
I hide my metaphorical knife,
Right behind my back.

Do you know how many things I wish I could change,
Do you know how many moments I would erase?
I'm broken, I'm bleeding,
Do you even care?
I put up this illusion so that you don't see,
So that you don't see me.

I'm trying to get away,
Trying to deal with this pain,
Trying to get away,
Trying to deal with this.
Trying to get away,
Trying to deal with his.
TRYING TO GET AWAY,
TRYING TO DEAL WITH THIS!

screamed chorus
Do you know how many things I wish I could change,
Do you know how many moments I would erase?
I'm broken, I'm bleeding,
Do you even care?
I put up this illusion so that you don't see,
So that you don't see me.
singing in the background, screaming up front
Do you know how many things I wish I could change,
Do you know how many moments I would erase?
I'm broken, I'm bleeding,
Do you even care?
I put up this illusion so that you don't see,
spoken
So that you don't see me.
