I understand
a smile is all it takes
to deceive the sadness within
that all is well
even when it isn't.

I know you feel pain, so do I
Humans are unpredictable, we all lie
I came from the west
and you, from the east
but the World is turning every beauty
around us into beasts

You fell in love, so did I,
He betrayed your trust, she told me lies
I see you look alive but you're dying inside
I hope you will overcome yours
like I did mine.

Like the smoke from a wild fire,
no one can hide their pains forever
I know you've shut your heart to love but
one should hurt you for another to heal you..
I know this because I understand...
