That Girl
She's that girl you see
 walking down the fresh rain poured street.
 with a smile on her face,
 but a frown on her heart.
 make-up puts on her grace
 but just untill she falls apart.
 
 You would never know it
 she tries not to show it
 she can only smile from the outside
 her heart is black and blue
 but no one can see through
 she only wonders why it even beats everytime.
 
 3 boys have broken her heart
 but thats not the reason why she's living in the dark
 when she goes home its just the abuse not only from herself but emotionally too.
 
 You would never know it
 she tries not to show it
 she can only smile from the outside
 her heart is black and blue
 but no one can see through
 she only wonders why it even beats everytime.
 
 She's got a fake smile on her face.
 her heart on her sleave.
 learning every step of the way.
 so ashamed
 
 she's never been touched with a knife
 but she puts it up to her skin just to know what it feels like
 a peaceful paradise.
 
 You would never know it
 she tries not to show it
 she can only smile from the outside
 her heart is black and blue
 but no one can see through
 she only wonders why it even beats everytime.
 
 A smile on her face
 A frown on her heart
 make-up puts on her grace
 but just untill she falls apart
