I try to stay strong
I try to laugh it off
I pretend I'm okay cause I know that's what you want to hear
And I'll do anything to make you happy
And I'll do anything to hide my reasons why...

The reasons why I hide the truth
THe reasons why I cry
The reasons why I lie
The reasons for what I try to deny
The reasons why...

I'll smile if you ask but, as soon as your out of sight I wipe the smile off my face
I'll try to stay strong and I'll try to be brave
But don't blame me when I go into my break down because
I've been hanging by a thread and it's way too easy to let go
And I'll do anything to hide the reasons why....

The reasons why I hide the truth
THe reasons why I cry
The reasons why I lie
The reasons for what I try to deny
The reasons why...

I will be happy for a while
And then it comes to me
What do I have to smile for
When my rage keeps getting out of control
What do I do?

The reasons why I hide the truth
THe reasons why I cry
The reasons why I lie
The reasons for what I try to deny
The reasons why..
