The woman you are now

Verse

Behind the lies hides a girl

Who lives in a dark place.

Inside her mind there’s a room.

A glimpse of a child’s face.

Chorus

So innocent and carefree

Till life came crashing down.

You’re fractured you are broken.

The woman you are now.

Verse

Behind that smile hides a truth

You don’t want me to know.

Behind the mask is the girl.

You once were long ago.

Chorus

So innocent and carefree

Till life came crashing down.

You’re fractured you are broken.

The woman you are now.

Verse

Despite your tears not a word.

To tell me how you feel.

Behind the truth is a lie

That still seems all too real.

Bridge

There’s no escaping from the past.

You’re chained to that dark day.

A child in a woman’s body

Still angry and afraid.

Verse

Behind the lies hides a girl

Who lives in a dark place.

Inside her mind there’s a room.

A glimpse of a child’s face.

Chorus

So innocent and carefree

Till life came crashing down.

You’re fractured you are broken.

The woman you are now.

A difficult subject for a man to write about. I think you handle it well.

 

Not so sure about these lines:

Behind the truth is a lie

That still seems all too real.

It seems to me that it's got things backwards. The truth (what happened and what it made her) is actually behind the lie (a smile or just going about life).

I may or may not be an enigma

The truth is what she hides with her lies.

Exactly. But I wouldn't worry about it. I always overthink these things.
