This was me

The notes are broken
The tempo is down
I feel like screaming
But I won't make a sound
The rain is falling down and down
No one sees I am about to drown

Sorrow, sorrow is all I feel
With all of these scars
Will I ever heal?
No, no, I won't
Because under the smiling girl you see
Is depths of dispair unmeasurable to me

The pain, the fears, and all the other things
Are expressed by the song she sings
She sings it all the time
Though no one catches the tune
Because no one wants to see
Someone facing their doom

But this girl is not off crying in a corner
No what you'd expect, not a loner
This is the girl with a smile on her face
The friend to all that will make your heart race
So please don't think you know what's going on inside
Because everyone has a secret to hide

The notes are broken
The tempo is down
We feel like screaming
But we will never make a sound
