So put on that fake smile

So put on a cheer

Don't let them know your life so vile

Don't let them see your tears

So just put on your mask

Which one are you going to use today?

So laugh and talk like nothings wrong

And don't let them know the hurt is there.

So don't talk about the night before

And they'll never know

Don't look them in the eyes

And your sorrow'll never show

Don't think about always being second best

Or living in the shadows

Because they'll never know

If they don't ask

So don't ask them to hear the things your not saying

But the things that are in your heart.

So just put on that glow of light

Just put away yourself so dark.

So just act like you don't notice him walking by

So just act like without him you'll be okay

Don't let them know that you're too shy

And think about him day after day.

So just put on your fake smile

And put on a mask

To cover up the hurt

And to shield reality
