A sad song about how I'm depressed you don't see because I put on a fake smile
Verse 1:
I wear a mask, a fake smile
But deep down I'm drowning in denial
You don't see the tears in my eyes
Or the heavy weight on my mind
Chorus:
I'm depressed, but you don't know
I hide it well, I never show
I put on a brave face every day
But inside, I'm slowly fading away
Verse 2:
I laugh and joke, pretend I'm okay
But inside, I'm crumbling away
I wish you could see the pain I feel
But I can't admit it, I keep it sealed
Chorus:
I'm depressed, but you don't know
I hide it well, I never show
I put on a brave face every day
But inside, I'm slowly fading away
Bridge:
I'm tired of pretending, of putting on a show
I'm tired of hiding, of feeling so low
I wish you could see the real me
And understand the pain that I can't set free
Chorus:
I'm depressed, but you don't know
I hide it well, I never show
I put on a brave face every day
But inside, I'm slowly fading away
Outro:
I'm struggling to keep it together
But I'll keep pretending, wearing this mask forever
I'll keep smiling, even though it's fake
Because I'm too scared to let my true feelings break
