How can you not see 

behind this mask of mine, 

i am crying and weeping.

how can you not see 

behind this smile of mine, 

i am frowning and it's not getting better. 

how could this life of mine, 

be any worse than it already is. 

can't you see, i am burning in flames,

can't you see, my heart is breaking and 

my soul is deteriorating. 

can't you see that i can't fight any longer.
