Hiding the Pain
I hide the pain behind the smile on my face
i can't take this pain anymore wish it was all over
I hide the pain behind the smile on my face
How i wish it was all over
I hide the pain behind the smile on my face
its like the place i have been hurt tries to heal
and u just keep pullin the scar off it over and over
I hide the pain behind the smile on my face
I wish it was all over
I hide the pain behind the smile on my face
with a little pop i can end it all

Painted Smile
Paint a smile on my face
Try to hide the pain
The smile never meets my eyes
My heart is full of shame
Paint a smile on my face
Try to forget the lies
The smile never meets my eyes
My heart is filled with pain
Paint a smile on my face
Try to forget I'm alone
The smile never meets my eyes
My heart begins to break
I feel a tender touch upon
The smile painted on
He wipes the smile off my face
Tells my heart to not be fake
He replaces the paint with a smile so true
I know I can't be alone
He takes the pain out of my heart
And fills me up again
For My God

This Smile
each day theres a smile on my face
to hide the tears
never do you know it is out of place
my heart is broken but this you do not know
cus this smile i have
will never let it show
lonelyness in me deep down inside
so i smile
for this pain i must hide
nobody knows me well enough to see
im alone
and want to be set free
somebody please hear my silent cry
wipe away invisable tears
pick me up before i die
maybe then my smile will be true
cus you saved me
for this i will owe my life to you....

Among the rust
You hide behind your smile,
Behind your plastic face,
You think noone knows
But we all feel the pain.
So stop pretending
Acting like nothings wrong
You only hurt yourself
When you put the smile on.
Now the day has come
The smile has fallen apart
Your face is cracked from all the lies,
And your mind falls apart.
Your smile has faded
And your skin turned to dust
Now its time to lay down among the rust.

A Smile Is..
A smile is light and love
A smile is send from above
A smile is always in motion
Your face is the earth, your smile is the ocean
A smile is not just a smile that gets your attention
A true smile is shining with good intention
A smile comes from within
A smile compensates for a man´s sin
A smile makes it all barible
The pain fades away and everything becomes incredible
We are eternal souls of Grace
When we smile we see our true face
You might fall and get hurt one day
But when smiling all pain will fade away
When you feel hope is gone and you have nothing to turn to
One must smile and realize that the Light will always be in you
Smile, A Balled For You
Smile
Maybe it will hide the pain,
Smile
Hopefully no one will worry
Smile
Hide what you feel
Smile
But look closely and see what people think
Smile
Maybe someone else will to
Smile
It may make you feel better
Smile,
You’re not the only one faking.
Cry or be real
When no one else can see you.
So Smile
It makes the world go around
Smile
So no one will see the tears
Smile
Other will be happy you do.
So smile
But keep someone close and tell them how you truly feel.
Smile
It is the only thing you can do.

Pain in my mind
Pain in my mind
Pain is what I go through,
Everyday
This pain fills me
Pain stuffed inside of me
Pain of stress on my life
You can feel the pain in my heart
I hide the pain behind the smile
I see myself in the past and I,
Dont want to return
I never knew how much pain,
cant hurt.
The memories of pain live,
on and on,
So much sadness in me
Years have passed,
Life begins again.

I Smile
I smile to cover the pain
I smile to hide my misery
But I'm tired of life and I wanna die
I want to escape from this hell Im living in
Will someone please take all the pain away
Take me to a place where I can be set free
Never again to know this agony
Never again to know the shit he puts me through
Take me to a place where I can be myself
Take me to a place of love & peace
Take me to a place where I can fly
There is only one problem
He lives off my pain, agony, and misery
He smiles at the site of my pain
But I just smile so no one can see the shit he puts me through
When I smile I turn into a different person
When I smile I lose another piece of my being
Every time I smile I hope someone sees through me
Sees through this fake skin and saves me before I die

We all smile to show our happiness,
We use it a lot, Yes,
Smile can be fake or real,
Its used to show or hide how we feel,
Fake smile is shown when,
Pain in heart rises,
And real smile is shown when,
Unexpected happiness doubles in sizes,
Natural or Not,
But its better to show a real one on the spot,
Let us be honest,
the only time we show the real smile is when someone has touched our heart,
and when we show the fake smile,
is when someone has tear everything apart,
Yes we show our fake smile,
to show people that we are okay so they wont revile,
Its hard to put on a real one as your hurt,
And yes we try to heal it as we flirt,
Its time to face the fact,
Showing a fake smile is like showing a fake and stupid act,
Put every pain to the side and smile for now,
not for someone,
But for everyone,
and show it as we are endowed.

Smile to the world
So, they can't see your pain
Smile to the world
To hide your tears
Smile to the world
Camouflage your turmoiled heart
Smile to the world
No questions asked
Smile to the world

Smile to the world with affection
Just smile to brighten someone's world.

In Ashes my Tears Now Lie
Here in ashes do my tears now lie
for every dropp filled with unrequited love did i cry
a smile that always cloud my sky
hear in ashes do my tears lie
I cannot smile a smile
but in one's eye its decieving
i cannot smile a smile
behind it lies choked words
words that i even hide from myself
it makes my tears taste even bitter
it makes the pain in my heart grow stronger and stronger
this smile is just a lie
so slowly is my smile fading
so slowly its secret is revealing
and so quickly im trying to stop the tears
but i cannot stop this secret from revealing the truth
i cannot hide the pain in my heart no more
i cannot hide the tears with laughter no more
all i can do is let it out
and slowly will it reveal the truth of what i have hidden for so long..

Smile
Though your heart is aching
Smile
Even though it's breaking
When there are clouds
In the sky,
You'll get by
If you smile
Through your fear and sorrow
Smile
And maybe tomorrow
You'll see the sun
Come shining through
For you
Light up your face with gladness
Hide every trace of sadness
Although a tear
May be ever so near
That's the time
You must keep on trying
Smile
What's the use of crying?
You'll find that life
Is still worth-while
If you just smile
Smile
Light up your face with gladness
Hide every trace of sadness
Although a tear
May be ever so near
That's the time
You must keep on trying
Smile,
What's the use of crying?
You'll find that life
Is still worth-while
If you just smile
Keep on smiling
Oh yeah
Smile
Never, never, never stop smile

Tears Of Pain
Tears of pain stream down my although I know you're in a better place
Wishing I could see your face..,
Tears of pain stream down my face, I know you won the race.
All your pain finally ends, you and I were close friends,
Tears of pain stream down my face, I'll still be here in the end,
Tears of pain stream down my face this is something I can't take.
It wasn't fare for you to go; I have never felt a deeper hole.
Tears of pain stream down my face I feel
Your presence, in my place
I sure do miss that smiling face,
Tears of pain stream down my face,
You were the brightness to fill my greys,
Tears of pain stream down my face
I miss the feeling of embrace,
When looking at your wonderful face
Tears of pain stream down my face.
It came to soon, but your alright I try to talk to you every night.
now I know you're in a better place, The tears of pain have withered away.

Faking a Smile
Whenever u see me
a smile resides on my face
i look happy, merry and alive
i look as if everything is good in my life
well just want to tell you the truth today
its not as it seems
the real picture is not good enough
behind that smile is hidden
one hell amount of other emotions
regret, dissappointment, regret and much
but still i smile..
or may be just fake a smile
so that u dont suffer my pain
earlier it was difficult to hide the truth behind the smile
but now it has become a habit of mine
i dont know when the smile would be real
may b tomorrow or day after
or may b never
but let me teel one more thing now
its not very difficult to fake a smile somehow...........

Courageous courage
I cry in courage
Its the only way to release pain using bravery and strength
Courage dedicates me to put on my shoes and face the worlds brutality
It holds my head on a holster 10 inches above my chest
It holds my mouth to a crack of a smile that glistens and hide my pain
My courage despises my weaknesses
Courage causes my muscles to tense up in my thighs and pump my legs to push in front of each other, causing motion and strength to walk
Courage is power, strength, dedication and this smile that hides my pain!

Please Everyone Else
I try to please everyone else
and try to make them happy
Just so that I don’t have to feel
My pain inside
I hurt so much
And tell them all
But no matter what
I just cant help myself
So I hide my pain away
I drink my sorrow away
And cut my pain away
No matter what I do
It just won't go away
I hear everyone else’s pain
And help them
As much as I can
Just to block
My hurt away
Even now 7 years on
I still have to hide
The pain away
Care about everyone else
At 11 be an adult
This was my childhood
And the way I lived
Just because my parents
Made me like this

Smile though your heart is aching
Smile even though it's breaking
When there are clouds in the sky
You'll get by
If you smile through your fear and sorrow
Smile and maybe tomorrow
You'll see the sun come shining through
For you
Light up your face with gladness
Hide every trace of sadness
Although a tear
May be ever so near
That's the time you must keep on tryin'
Smile, what's the use of cryin'
You'll find that life is still worthwhile
If you'd just smile

Ivan, What Happened To Your Smile?
What happened to your smile?
Ivan, [that`s how I would like to call you]
Tell, where is your smile that bloomed on your face?
Ivan, I am afraid your smile has faded for ever.
In the midst of deafening roars and maddening songs,
Ivan, your smile had a musical charm over a season.
Your smile could be seen from places miles away,
Ivan, it had an aroma that winds would proudly carry.
I used to think about others who had solid faces,
Ivan, your face was an exception to all theirs.
The frost and the flame of my winter and summer
Ivan, you see, played hide and seek often; but your smile did not.
Retrieve your smile please for I need to see it
Ivan, your smile speaks volumes about what you are indeed.
In the midst of these homosapians I search for my face
Though I had lost my smile long before you were born Ivan.

My disguise
My smile is my disguise,
To hide all the hurt inside,
That's slowly killing me,
My heart,
Tearing in two,
All the time over you,
You broke my heart once and it finally healed,
Now you're back to break it again,
I loved you and still do,
But i just can't cope with it anymore,
The pain's too much,
The heartache that comes with it,
I just wish it to fade away,
The voices to leave me alone,
I just wish to fade away,
The mood swings,
Hatred, anger, fear, upset,
I feel over and over in a circle,
I can't take it no more,
Can't you see,
All the pain that you have caused me,
All the pain you are causing me,
So when you see my smile,
It's a disguise,
Because I don't want people to see,
All my feelings from inside,

Can You Not See?
Can you not see this pain I have inside
For so long It had to hide
Pain surrounds me day by day
It just doesn't seem to go away
Pain that comes and pain that goes
Pain that keeps you on your toes
There is pain in my heart
And it seems to never part
Pain stuffed inside of me
Can't let anyone near me
Can't let anyone see the real me
It seems that nobody cares
I can't take this pain anymore
I just want to walk out the door
