If they only knew

You can't see her scars
She hides them deep inside
She plasters on a smile
To hide the pain

If they only knew

She tosses and turns
Late at night
Her nightmares
Come to life
And the rest of the world
Can see her secret

If they only knew
The burden she carried
If they only knew
The girl who hides inside

Behind the jokes
Behind the smile
Behind the mask
There's a girl

Just begging to come out
And let the world see
What she really is

If they only knew

Deep within her
The scars she bares
Will never be seen

If they only knew
