Where LOGIC ends, FAITH begins.<br /> - Zoya Khan


You cry the whole night
And smile all day long
You’re pretending not to care
Pretending to get along
With life, but you're faking
You smile, but don't mean it

Big house, good grades and beauty
Are not always everything
You're always in a shell
Trying to hide your feelings

Staying quiet and faking smiles
Seem easier than crying
Over what you can't change
So you go, try to act numb
But nobody's ever completely numb

You can close your eyes
And think no one can see you
But not everyone's the same
It hurts when I see through
The smile, that you're faking
Your smile, do you mean it?

Big house, good grades and beauty
Are not always everything
You're always in a shell
Trying to hide your feelings

Staying quiet and faking smiles
Seem easier than crying
Over what you can't change
So you go, try to act numb
But nobody's ever completely numb

There are some problems you can't fight
So you just need to ignore'em
But why ignore every right and wrong?
Why act like you're numb?

Oh please don't act like you're numb!

Big house, good grades and beauty
Are not always everything
You're always in a shell
Trying to hide your feelings

Staying quiet and faking smiles
Seem easier than crying
Over what you can't change
So you go, try to act numb
But nobody's ever completely numb

Oh please don't act like you're numb!
Oh please don't act like you're numb!
Oh please don't act like you're numb!


The author's comments:
I think many people, especially girls, can relate to this song. There are people in your life who you think are really lucky and have a perfect life but you're shocked when you come to know that they have some serious problems in their lives that they've been hiding. It really hurts when that person is your friend and you feel like a bad friend cuz you never knew that they had been suffering. So this one's dedicated to everyone who is considered the luckiest person but in reality, is not. :::EVERYTHING IS NOT WHAT IT SEEMS:::

&quot;Imperfection is beauty. Madness is genius. And its better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring. And when it comes down to it, I let them think what they want. If they care enough to bother with what I do, I&#039;m already better than them.&quot;

i love this ! ! Very deep and real !

It's hard to pretend,fake smiles hurt deep inside Sometimes she doesn't care,sometimes she cares too much.
