I advise you to not hide your feelings
Don't pretend to be okay when you're not okay
Don't pretend to be happy when you're sad
It'll only lead to your misery
The silence screams but no one hears
You're drowning slow in bottled tears
Each laugh, a lie — a quiet plea
Living hurts, but death's not free
(It is for me. Please, free me.)
So we play pretend… eternally
Wearing masks carved out of pain
Smiling wide while going insane
And no one notices the blood in the rain
