A Simple Façade

To put on a mask,

to hide my heart,

This simple facade

is tearing me apart.

A fake smile,

A little wave.

But, is this really

all that I can say?

This simple facade

is falling apart.

All because of these feelings

that lie inside my heart.

I daydream of a tomorrow

that could never be.

I sleep in this night

with my heart locked and no key.

This simple facade

is falling apart.

Because you know me too well,

and have become too smart.

I'll close myself away

and keep you distant.

Because this happy girl you fell in love with

is nonexistent.

It's safer this way

for you and I.

Because you are the one person

whom I never want to see cry.
