Surrounded by so many people
Why do I feel so alone?
Twirling straight hair between my manicured fingers
What if they really know

What if they know about my brutal past
What if they know about my inner thoughts
What if they know that happiness
Is just a thing that doesn't last

What if they know that I drown myself in pain
If they found out, things will never be the same
They won't accept me as I am
If they ever know

In red lipstick I paint a fake smile
This act should last me for a while
I'll be alive among the crowd
I'll pretend that on the inside I'm really that wild

The tears that sometimes smear my black liner
May not escape my eyes while I remain a liar
On the inside that shall grow cold
And my brain will lash out against a cruel world

What if they know about my brutal past
What if they know about my inner thoughts
What if they know that happiness
Is just a thing that doesn't last

What if they know that I drown myself in pain
If they found out, things will never be the same
They won't accept me as I am
If they ever know
If they ever know...

I'm sick of the girl I know I'm not
To have a heart that must transform on the spot
Can I make some room in my life for me?
Tell the world that I'm not who I pretend to be

What if they know about my brutal past
What if they know about my inner thoughts
What if they know that happiness
Is just a thing that doesn't last

Today they'll find out who I am
If they like it or not, I'll never be the same
They might not accept it, but today they'll know
Yes, today they will know
A song I've been working on for a while. It's about a preppy girl who's been faking her whole life.

I don't mind this. Everyone needs to face up to the truth at least once in their lives.
