Invisible Smile

I’ve tried and tried
To smile all the time
But suddenly I feel down
Like I never was happy

I want to be happy
I really do
I want to show the world
That I didn’t need you

‘Cause I don’t…

Maybe it’s just this headache
That has bothered me for so long
I wish I could get rid of it
Somehow

I don’t want to get sad
Just like that
I want to show that I’m happy
That I’ve never felt better

I just wish
That I could show you,
How happy I am..

Have I Changed My Mind?

What’s happening with me?
Why am I feeling so different now?
Why I am not interested in you anymore?
Have I changed my mind?

The feelings are so different,
I never look at you anymore.
I just don’t hope that,
I’ve stopped loving you.

I don’t hope it’s someone else,
That I’ve suddenly fallen in love with.
I don’t hope it’s someone else,
That I’ve started thinking about.

Because if it is someone else,
I’ve maybe stopped thinking about you.
If it really is someone,
I think I’ve changed my mind.

They say that our love is a lie,
But can I trust them?
They say that, every time you say “I love you”, you’re lying,
But don’t you mean it?

They say that you’re just playing with me,
But you do love me, don’t you?
They say that you’re a monster,
But, can I believe them when they say that?

No, I can’t believe them,
And I never will.
I’ve never trusted them,
You know that for sure.

I know you love me,
And that you always have.
I don’t trust them when they say that,
And I never will.
