The truth hurts, so live a lie
A joyous act, the last goodbye
Worry not, forget your fears
I'll speak no more of blood-stained tears
Line after line the play goes on
All too soon the mask is gone
Replace it quick before they see
Just how scared my arms can be
Smile be happy, play pretend
It what they see, until the end
They all believe, All is well
Sweetened words, the lies I tell
Help I would find, if I could speak
To voice aloud the help I seek
My voice a whisper, script ignored
I don't know, I'm only bored
I've much to live for, practised skills
Would you believe me, boredom kills
