When I speak my feelings

A smile is always plastered on my face

Because I was once a little girl

In need of a place

[Crack]

A place where everyone understood

Where everyone could see that my eyes

Held no emotion

And my smile never fully stretched

[Crack]

Now when I speak

I see the memories in the past

“Can’t you be genuine for once?”

[Crack]

I am, but no one can ever see past my facade

If you tore me open you would see decay

All I ever was was genuine

But you just laughed and went on your way

[I break]
