I’m hiding my pain
Behind a smile that feels in vain.

If you see me happy today,
Know it’s not your fault in any way.
It’s just my way of masking the ache,
A quiet strength I force to fake.

I gave her my love, every part,
But she left me with a broken heart.
Now she’s my ex, a memory at best,
While I wait for my next—my hopeful quest.

She’s good, but she wanted more,
Something I couldn’t restore.
So here I am, lost in the haze,
Faking my smile, playing crazy games.
