This is the part you'll never see

Verse 1 I wear a smile across my face, Like nothing ever went away. They ask me if I'm doing fine, I tell them "yes"... but that's a lie. There's a battle in my eyes, Hidden underneath the light. I learned to laugh a little louder, So no one hears me break at night. Every morning I put on The strongest version of myself. No one sees the cracks beneath, No one knows this silent hell. Pre-Chorus I keep the thunder locked inside, Clouds that never leave my sky. Every sunset tears me down, Every sunrise lifts me up again. I hide the scars behind my words, Pretending everything's alright. Chorus This is the part you'll never see, The weight that's living inside me. I fall apart when no one's there, Still pretending that I never cared. I'm standing tall for everyone, But I'm breaking when the day is done. If my heart could speak out loud, It would still be calling your name. This is the part you'll never see. Verse 2 Your voice still echoes through these walls, Even when the silence calls. Every memory feels alive, Like a flame that never dies. I keep moving, keep breathing, Trying hard to find my way. But some mornings even hope Feels so very far away. They say that time can heal us all, Maybe that's true for someone else. I'm still learning how to live With the pieces of myself. Pre-Chorus Every step becomes a fight, Every dream fades with the night. Still I wear this empty smile, Hoping it will fool the world. Chorus This is the part you'll never see, The tears that never leave my sleep. I carry every broken piece, Locked inside where no one sees. I'm the strongest in the crowd, Yet the weakest all alone. When the darkness fills the room, I'm left with memories of you. Bridge Maybe someday I'll let it go, Open every locked-up door. Maybe someday I won't be scared Of the silence anymore. Until then I'll keep walking, Even if my heart still bleeds. Because giving up on life Would mean giving up on me. Final Chorus This is the part you'll never see, Still beating quietly inside of me. If you could hear my heart tonight, You'd know I'm losing every fight. But I'll keep standing through the rain, Learning how to love again. When all the lights have disappeared, I'll find the strength beneath my tears. This is the part you'll never see.
