Lyrics
I'll tell you a story now
Of pain I was endowed and
Like pop star visuals
The truth was never loud
I had love and bared my soul
He abused me to my core
Told me how to dress
That my shorts give him stress
And all of my lovers' past
Just makes him a mess
He projects sins on my
Refusal to say goodbye
To a love that made me strive
But buried my soul alive
On the surface, I'm not lost
No one knows the cost
Woah, oh
On the surface, there's no pain
Just like popstar feigns
So I'll do it like Britney
'Till you see past the surface
Those around will think all's fine
They don't get the surface lies
Veil won't break, so I quake
With fear that I belong here
Dear old lover, know I've tried
To cure your abusive cries
Internalize the pain 'cause
I love you insane, argh!
He loves the blame
His control is now my shame
Can't go to sports games
Cheering other guys ain't sane
Ah! This hurt can't be my fault
Though I won't know 'til it all halts
On the surface I'm not lost
No one knows the cost
Woah, oh
On the surface there's no pain
Just like popstar feigns
So I'll do it like Britney
'Till you see past the surface
And then it's good and gold
No more threats to be outspoke
I trust 'cause I know the lies
Are something I must survive
He says all is fine
I'm happy tonight
Surface gap closes
Then I notice-
On the surface, I'm not lost
No one knows the cost
Woah, oh
On the surface, there's no pain
Just like popstar feigns
On the surface, I'm not lost
(My peace and him won't get along)
No one knows the cost
(But now I know I don't belong)
On the surface
(Overturn the questioning)
Just like popstar feigns
Can I love? Hah!
Can I even sing?!
So I'll do it like Britney
'Till you see past my surface
It's not your fault
