the tracks of my tears

people say i'm the life of the party, because i tell a joke or two, although i might 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 having fun, although she may be cute, she's just a substitute, because you're the permanent one. 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, outside i'm masquerading, inside my hope is fading, just a clown oh yeah, since you put me down, my smile is my make up, i wear since my break up with you. 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
