Living a Lie
You're living a lie
Your smile is fake
Be nice to your heart;
Give it a break
The smiles you plaster,
The makeup you wear
Are all a disguise that
Makes you not care
It is a lie
This thing you called life;
For it has been hard,
Filled with strife
You can't escape it,
It knows who you are;
Just conquer your fears
Before they've gone too far
You can be happy,
You've been there before
No more self-harm,
That decision is poor
How will hurting yourself
Make your pain go away?
Will it push it to the dawn
Of another day?
It is temporary,
This physical pain
But the scars that you wear
What will they help you gain?
The hard times will pass,
I swear that they will
Believe if you want
Or make your life shrill
Get up off your bed
Get onto your feet
This is your life and
You should never retreat
Your smile is fake
Be nice to your heart;
Give it a break
The smiles you plaster,
The makeup you wear
Are all a disguise that
Makes you not care
It is a lie
This thing you called life;
For it has been hard,
Filled with strife
You can't escape it,
It knows who you are;
Just conquer your fears
Before they've gone too far
You can be happy,
You've been there before
No more self-harm,
That decision is poor
How will hurting yourself
Make your pain go away?
Will it push it to the dawn
Of another day?
It is temporary,
This physical pain
But the scars that you wear
What will they help you gain?
The hard times will pass,
I swear that they will
Believe if you want
Or make your life shrill
Get up off your bed
Get onto your feet
This is your life and
You should never retreat
