Lies Beneath the Smile

[Intro]
Yes dear, I lied to you
Thought I was fine, hid what I knew
Smile for you, just to see
The light in your eyes, so effortlessly

[Verse 1]
I told the world I was okay
Hidden pain inside, day after day
Knowing what I do, to myself I fell
In love with you, but there's hell

[Pre-Chorus]
The truth I keep, deep in my heart
I loved you, yet I fell apart
The pain's growing, I can't resist
Help me now, I can't persist

[Chorus]
Yes, I lied to you, made it seem right
Thought I was fine, hidden in the night
Flowers at my funeral, that's all that's mine
Living without care, my crossing line

[Bridge]
I never told you, I was breaking inside
The lies I told you, I couldn't hide
The pain is getting heavier, I can't take it
Help me now, for my own sake

[Outro]
Yes dear, I lied to you
Thought I was fine, hid what I knew
But the pain's too much, I can't deny
Goodbye, my love, I just want to die
