Why Can't I?

Why can't I smile with truth?
Love does me no good...
Now, I need proof
That love is what it should.

Why are my laughs fake?
Why can't I be with someone
Without putting anything at stake?

In this case,
It was my happiness!
Why can't I, my suffering, erase?
And live in simple bliss?

I don't need revenge.
I don't need another guy.
My happy days I needn't avenge,
I only need my tears to dry.

Why can't I be perky?
Why can't I be the way I was?
Because a broken heart makes everything murkey.
That's why love hurts the way it does!
