You say you know me but you do not see.
A secret that's hidden deep within me.
I put on a smile with each passing day.
Tolerating what bad people say.
I am actually afraid of letting this build.
Of what can happen when to the top is filled.
Lied to. Cheated on. Always left broken.
No-one hearing my words left unspoken.
What meaning would they hold, what weight would they carry.
There is no fear behind my smile so merry.
Deep within I feel it awaken.
Tired of all the wrong I have taken.
To the next one that says to me true.
I have one piece of advice for you.
Don't push me more, I don't think I can fight.
This thing that pushes every night.
As long as I'm happy the demon will sleep.
But if I am hurt it will surely creep.
Just know I am two no matter what is seen.
I just want to wash it until I am clean.
So while you hold me close and make me laugh.
Just know you'd be a fool to Love Only Half.
