Faking Smiles

Though my heart is still wide open;
no one else can feel my pain.
They only see my brighter days.
They got no idea how many smiles I have been faking.

People tell me to show who I really am.
But thats harder than it sounds.
I am a lot more than hard shell and soft insides.
They dont see me crying, lying, and dying inside.

Well Im tired of fitting in when I should be standing out.
I love to live.
And I love to laugh.
But Im still shaking and breaking.
Faking Smiles.

They say that Im beautiful.
That dont mean a thing;
Until the find me.
And I promise when they do

I wont be faking smiles no more.
I will be who I am.
You said no more facades so Im trying.

No more.
No more faking.
No more faking
No more faking
Smiles.
