Can’t you see
She hides
Behind a smile
That’s way too wide
At night
She cries
Wakes up
Applies
That make up
To cover those tear soaked eyes
Pep talk
Before she goes
Just one more day
She tells herself
Arrives
Guess what
Again
She just wasn’t good enough
She laughs
To cover up the tears
Last bell
She’s gone
Out of there
But not for long
She wishes
She was someone else
Anyone
But herself
They don’t know
She doesn’t think
She’s worth it
They don’t know
She doesn’t know
She’s perfect
