I’ve had my cry 
I WANT TO SCREAM 
I carry myself as a lady 
WHY WHY WHY, AGAIN 
I hide the pain oh so well 
FOR WHAT TO PLEASE THE FUCKING WORLD 
I smile and greet the day in silence 
MY INSIDES ARE BURNING ME APART! 
Thank you for your kindness 
FUCK YOU, YOUR SORRIES I’M NOT FUCKING DEAD YET! 
Put on the pink face. 
Put on the fake smile. 
Just remember to keep “putting” it on you can last awhile.
