I lend everyone my ear,

But nobody my heart,

And I sure would like to change that,

But I don't know where to start,

I sile more to myself,

Than the world will ever see,

Because the only time my smile is real,

Is in my own company,

People don't know how I feel,

They never even ask,

It seems that I've fooled them all,

They can't see  past my mask,

If they were with me last night,

When the world was still asleep,

Maybe then I'd let them sort,

Through the secrets that I keep,

But when I wake at 2 am,

Nobody is ever there,

And I learnt why I hide my heart,

Is because no one really cares.
