Smiles Lie

I hide my tears in the rain
They fall like diamonds in dismay
My smile tries to hide the pain
Sometimes I want to run away
Deep within my fear takes hold
I'm trapped inside this hopeless state
Can't win this game, I think I'll fold
There's just no way around this gate
I close my eyes, take in a breath
I'll make it out, I'll pass this test
This road will not be my death
I'll put an end to this lonely quest
