No Real Smiles
You were the only one who cared
The only one I knew
Would be there for me no matter what
Because I'm always there for you

I didn't have to show my pain
For you to know something was wrong
You understood my every thought
I'm surprised it lasted so long

You've gone to be like the others
As I scream for someone to understand
I'm crushing under the pressure
And there's noone to grab my hand

I'm now a burden in your life
As I am for many I've come to know
I've always hid my pain for others
But now I'm letting it show

It doesn't make a difference
They pretend that they don't see
They try to pretend all is well
As they all wish it could be

They think I'm being sarcastic
But it hurts me bad to live
What they can't seem to understand
Is I have no real smiles to give
