This song says it all.

Pain disaster constant friends, Sadness every day a friend Acquaintances very many They'll never understand Smiles on the outside Storms inside A chance meeting My mission was bed Got dragged out instead Curses on my breath Smiles on the outside Storms inside She cursed when she saw me I was oblivious but lonely She seemed determined I had no expectations Smiles on the outside Storms inside Now I'm lighter Birds singing no longer a nuisance Staring at my phone Red blinking awaiting Smiles on the outside Clouds are lifting In her eyes she's damaged In mine she's perfect She inspires the sunrise Her smile the sunshine Smiles on the outside Days are perfect.
