Oh my… I found this video on YouTube yesterday and I have listened to it so many times, and every time, it makes me cry. I share the Lyrics for this song below…
I don’t bury my emotions anymore; I face them, see where they come from and work it out. Most of the time, I find that my emotions are lying to me as there is nothing wrong and nothing to fear. This has made my life a lot more peaceful.
I hope you enjoy this song and it “speaks” to you too!
Song Lyrics
I smile in the mirror, but it’s all just a lie,
I laugh with the crowd, but inside I wanna cry.
They don’t see the storm that’s brewing in my chest,
They can’t hear the pain, can’t feel the stress.
I walk through the day with a mask on my face,
But the weight on my shoulders is hard to erase.
Every night I lie awake with thoughts in my head,
The tears on my pillow, the words left unsaid.
The pain I hide, it’s deep inside,
I keep it locked, don’t let it show outside.
They see the smile, but not the scars,
I’m breaking down behind these bars.
The pain I hide, it cuts so deep,
I cry alone when the world’s asleep.
I hold it in, but it’s killing me slow,
Nobody knows, nobody knows.
I tell myself, “Stay strong, keep moving on,”
But the shadows of the past keep pulling me down.
Every fake grin feels like a heavy chain,
Dragging me deeper into silent pain.
I don’t want pity, don’t want their eyes,
So I keep it buried, keep living in disguise.
The weight of the world, it’s hard to carry alone,
But I’d rather be silent than let it be known.
The pain I hide, it’s deep inside,
I keep it locked, don’t let it show outside.
They see the smile, but not the scars,
I’m breaking down behind these bars.
The pain I hide, it cuts so deep,
I cry alone when the world’s asleep.
I hold it in, but it’s killing me slow,
Nobody knows, nobody knows.
Sometimes I scream, but no one hears my voice,
Drowning in silence, like I have no choice.
I’ve mastered the art of pretending I’m fine,
But each day it’s harder to walk that line.
I wish I could open up, let someone in,
But the fear of being judged keeps it all within.
So I’ll keep my secrets, keep wearing this mask,
While the pain I hide becomes a heavier task.
The pain I hide, it’s deep inside,
I keep it locked, don’t let it show outside.
They see the smile, but not the scars,
I’m breaking down behind these bars.
The pain I hide, it cuts so deep,
I cry alone when the world’s asleep.
I hold it in, but it’s killing me slow,
Nobody knows, nobody knows.
And when the lights go out, and the world fades away,
I sit with my demons, let them have their say.
The weight on my heart, it’s crushing my soul,
But I can’t let them see that I’m losing control.
Behind the smile, there’s a boy who cries,
But I’ll keep pretending till the day I die.
The pain I hide, it’s deep inside,
I keep it locked, don’t let it show outside.
They see the smile, but not the scars,
I’m breaking down behind these bars.
The pain I hide, it cuts so deep,
I cry alone when the world’s asleep.
I hold it in, but it’s killing me slow,
Nobody knows, nobody knows.
Nobody knows the pain I hide,
I keep it buried, deep inside.
Behind the laughter, behind the lies,
I carry the hurt, and nobody tries.
The pain I hide, it’s mine to keep,
And I’ll hold it in, till I’m buried deep.
