Lyrics

People say I'm the life of the party
Cause I tell a joke or two
Although I may be laughing loud and hearty
Deep inside I'm blue
So take a good look at my face
You'll see my smile looks out of place
If you look closer it's easy to trace
The tracks of my tears
I need you, need you
Since you left me
If you see me with another girl
Seeming like I'm havinfun
Although she may be cute
She's just a substitute
Cause your the permanent one
So take a good look at my face
You see my smile looks out of place
If you look closer it's easy to trace
The tracks of my tears
I need you, need you
(Outside)
I'm masquerading
(Inside)
My hope is fading
Oh yeah, since you put me down
My smile is my makeup
I wear since my break-up with you
Baby take a good look at my face
You'll see my smile looks out of place
If you look closer it's easy to trace
The tracks of my tears
