The Girl Who Smiled
She hides her pain
 Behind her smile.
 Her laugh alone
 Could take you miles.
 
 You'd never know.
 She'd never tell
 How her life 
 Has been a hell.
 
 Mayday, mayday!
 Now she drowns.
 Sinking slowly.
 Happy now.
 
 Leaving here,
 Away from this.
 A quiet nothing.
 A deadly bliss.
 
 No one knows
 What happened there.
 No one knew
 Of her despair.
 
 Mayday, mayday!
 They shed their tears.
 For a beautiful girl
 They'd known for years.
 
 She'd always been
 The girl who smiled.
 The one whose laugh
 Could take you miles.
 
 Whatever happened
 To the girl they knew?
 To the girl whose laugh
 Was never true?
 
 Now she is gone
 Just like a dream
 And they all wish
 They'd heard her scream.
 
 Goodbye, farewell
 To the happiest girl.
 As she is no longer
 A part of this world.
