On the outside I look normal
I smile everyday
I even laugh occasionally
Crazy you might say
But beneath the surface
there's much more than what you see
I'm screaming to be noticed
to see the real me
I may smile everyday
But I also shed many tears
Everyday is a struggle
Sometimes I just want to leave
But your too busy getting angry
yelling and punishing me
That you never once have noticed
how miserable you make me
You caught me once before
you saw the scars on my wrist
You freaked when you saw them
but I told you that I fell
Now I'm happy you believed me
for there is no way to explain
But I just wish that you would notice
that I live in pain each day
Every night I lay down
and wish upon a star
That maybe this is just a nightmare
to be over in the morn
Appearance can be tricky
for it has no real meaning
If you get below the surface
maybe you can reveal it
