Nobody Knows

Nobody knows it’s empty

This smile that I wear

The real one is left in the past

Because you have left me there.

Nobody knows I’m crying

They won’t even see my tears

When they think that I am laughing

I’m still wishing you were here.

Nobody knows I’m lying

When I say I’m moving on

They think that I’ve accepted it

But I can’t believe you’re gone.

Nobody knows it’s different

They think I’m just the same

But still I weaken at the knees

When someone says your name.

Nobody knows it’s painful

They think that I am strong

They say that this won’t kill me

But I wonder if they’re wrong.

Nobody knows I’m praying

That you will change your mind

They think that I had let you go

When you left me behind.

Nobody knows I miss you

They think I feel set free

But I feel like I’m bound with chains

Trapped in this misery.

Nobody knows I want you

They think that I’m alright

But I’m still dancing with you

When I’m dreaming in the night.

Nobody knows I need you

They say I can do it on my own

But they don’t know I’m crying

When I am all alone.
