Nobody notices, nobody cares
They never look farther than what’s up there
They only see the pretty smile
The girl with the great grades
But do they ever see the girl who breaks?
No they’ve never seen her
She always hides
Disappearing when people walk by
Hiding the fact that she wants to cry
Nobody notices, nobody cares I’m.
Why should she stay here when there’s no one there
She’s all alone in this ruthless world
She’s never had a hand she could hold
No one’s ever thought to hold her hand
Because her mask is so perfect nobody sees
They believe that she has the best life because that’s what she portrays
She protects herself from falling all the way
But how long can she stay?
Nobody notices, nobody cares.
