I used to pride myself, on being an open book for all eyes to read,
No secrets, no nothing to hide ‘cause I was proud of me,
(oooo)
Not one to be constantly aware of what I eat, or what I wear,
No fear or judgmental eyes, or harmful words, I was never scared,
(oooo)
But this hurt gets heavy and hard to push away, and I’m,
Growing weaker with every day, so,
I will hide behind my smile, and
Keep on singin’ my silly songs, and
Walk like I were beautiful so
No one sees or no one cares,
Like a weed grabs for the sun, I yearn for eyes from everyone,
Makes me crazy to feel ignored I start to wilt, I fall to the floor,
(ooooo)
But this winter’s cold and far from gone and
I am starving for the sun, so
I will hide behind my smile, and
Keep on singin’ my silly songs, and
Walk like I were beautiful so
No one sees or no one cares,
I will hide behind my smile, and
Keep on singin’ my silly songs, and
Walk like I were beautiful so
No one sees or no one cares,
Not a wince of pain you’ll see, I’ll
Run away you can’t catch me, in
Every mirror I’ll count my fears and
Sing of how they devoured me,
I will hide behind my smile, and
Keep on singin’ my silly songs, and
Walk like I were beautiful so
No one sees or no one cares,
I will hide behind my smile, and
Keep on singin’ my silly songs, and
Walk like I were beautiful so
No one sees or no one cares,
I will hide behind my smile, and
Keep on singin’ my silly songs, and
Walk like I were beautiful so
No one sees or no one cares,
