Who I am

Lights, camera, action

It's time for acting

Put on a mask 

Im a different person 

and you will see who 

Im meant to be 

Laugh off the pain

That's what I do 

Keep a smiling face 

Even though I hurt so bad 

keep the storm inside 

The hurricane 

Take a sip of my pain

And taste my tears 

So put on the make-up 

Pretend  and make believe

How could you know 

If I act as someone im not 

Take a shovel and dig 

Into my past, my life

See the tears I've cried

See the bullets of pain shoot through me

Do you really know the smiling girl 

The past I hide in dark places in my mind 

I keep only happy thoughts 

Like a diamond I SEEM clear

But shine it in the light you'll see my colors

You must be foolish to think im happy 

Do you see my broken heart, my lonely soul

I forgot your blind to my pain 

So tell me...

Who am I

The loved, the content, the great

No im the broken, the barren, the strangled

That's who I am
