Samantha Clayman - Broken

I'm just a girl in disguise
A girl who walked away from everyone who cared
I tell myself it's all a dream and that I'll wake up
But the pain is all too real
All of the lies I told to keep my friends away from me
It hurt too much to cry
You see me smiling but look into my eyes and tell me
Is this happiness?

On the outside I am smiling
On the inside I am dying
Oh, why can't you see right through my tears?
All the voices I've been hearing
All the pain that has been searing
The answer is just to let it bleed
I lost my shoulder to lean on
Promises we'd agreed on
All of the people who have ever cared
Every word that's been spoken
Everything I'd been hoping
And now I'm broken
And now I'm broken

I want to fly, I want to soar
But a single gust can knock me to the floor
Gravity, it has a hold
And I just can't seem to break out of its mold
I should forgive myself
Open my eyes
And release all the toxins in my head
But all my demons say that I will never win
I'll always be paper-thin

On the outside I am smiling
On the inside I am dying
Oh, why can't you see right through my tears?
All the voices I've been hearing
All the pain that has been searing
The answer is just to let it bleed
I lost my shoulder to lean on
Promises we'd agreed on
All of the people who have ever cared
Every word that's been spoken
Everything I'd been hoping
And now I'm broken
And now I'm broken

I'm a mess
Ripped to shreds
Torn apart at the seams
No longer anyone's dream
I am falling
I have fallen
Into an endless abyss

On the outside I am smiling
On the inside I am dying
Oh, why can't you see right through my tears?
All the voices I've been hearing
All the pain that has been searing
The answer is just to let it bleed
I lost my shoulder to lean on
Promises we'd agreed on
All of the people who have ever cared
Every word that's been spoken
Everything I'd been hoping
And now I'm broken
And now I'm broken
