Brandi Young - I Smile

I smile to cover the pain
I smile to hide my misery
But I'm tired of life and I wanna die

I want to escape from this hell Im living in
Will someone please take all the pain away
Take me to a place where I can be set free

Never again to know this agony
Never again to know the shit he puts me through

Take me to a place where I can be myself
Take me to a place of love & peace
Take me to a place where I can fly

There is only one problem
He lives off my pain, agony, and misery
He smiles at the site of my pain
But I just smile so no one can see the shit he puts me through

When I smile I turn into a different person
When I smile I lose another piece of my being

Every time I smile I hope someone sees through me
Sees through this fake skin and saves me before I die
