Soundwaves on Sand - Golden Rule

She smiled
As she ordered the noose
She smiled
Happiness is something you choose
She smiled
Cried invisible tears
She smiled
Ignored all of her fears
She smiled
That's what she's expected to do
She smiled
Wear that mask is her golden rule
She smiled
While she wrote her last words
Alright
Now I'm leaving this world
They say I fake it
Make it up for attention
Just shake it off
It's all in your head
You've got to try harder
But I've lost all my strength
Why keep on trying
I'm better off dead
Why did no one see the scars that she hides?
Why did no one notice the tears in her eyes?
Why did everybody believe her fake smiles?
Why does everybody joke about suicide?
She smiled
But she still was depressed
She smiled
With suicide in her head
She smiled
Stay strong and let no one see
She feared
If I tell them, of course they will leave
They say I fake it
Make it up for attention
Just shake it off
It's all in your head
You've got to try harder,
every one's sometimes sad
Why are you anxious
Why are you depressed
Why did no one see the scars that she hides?
Why did no one notice the tears in her eyes?
Why did everybody believe her fake smiles?
Why does everybody joke about suicide?
Why does no one see that her brain's simply sick?
Why do you think that she's selfish and weak?
When it comes to depression most people are blind
That's why she decided to leave us behind
But Jesus saw the scars that she hides
He saw all the tears in her eyes
He knew what's behind the heavy mask
And he will carry her through the dark
