A victim of society
A junky of conformity
She convinced herself of her happiness
Unaware of the phoniness
yearns for love and attention
so she spreads smiles in every direction


But at night
The truth reveals the madness
The fake smiles turn into sadness
And she can't sleep
The nightmares run too deep
And she wakes up in fear
She can't stop the tears
because nothing is alright
At night


Sacrificed herself for the feeling of belonging
Surrounded by family and friends
Inside she is so lonely
A loneliness that has no end
With a husband that can't show love
A son that is disgusted by all she is
Yet she finds a way to smile
She's cured by a drug called denial


But at night
The truth reveals the madness
The fake smiles turn into sadness
And she can't sleep
The nightmares run too deep
And she wakes up in fear
She can't stop the tears
because nothing is alright
At night


On the last day of her life
Will she look back and say
''was living a lie the only way?''


And She longs to break the chains
But they've grown too strong
And she yearns to escape the pain
But it's all around now, it has been there all along
And she can't break through
Her own fear is blocking her way
So she looks for a way inside herself
Her own defenses are there

Maybe in her dreams
She forgives.
Forgives herself in vain.
