silent tears fill her eyes
invisible tears fall from her face
can no one see the pain
can no one see the struggle
can no one she shes in trouble
she waits for someone to notice
or maybe for someone to care
for someone to see beyond her pretty hair
they say shes doing great
she knows shell never equate
never live up to all they expect
she knows she can never be perfect
she knows she cant do it all
knows that soon she is going to fall
thats shes going to hit the ground hard
they'll all ask what happened
but how can she explain
she just couldn't sustain
couldn't be what they wanted
so she ended up haunted
