Waterproof - Nik Ammar

Behind the laughter

Is a tortured soul

With waterproof eyes

So the tears don’t flow

A victim of moods

Swinging out of control

Fighting the fears

Laughing and joking

Under the smile

The turmoil is choking

They’ve no idea

I’m not coping at all

Every time you see me

My happiness is fleeting

Keep the tears locked inside

My eyes are watertight

Every day I’m grinning

But the demons are still winning

Every fear I will hide

Cause clowns can only cry on the inside

Lost and I’m blind

Can’t a find a way out

My choices are all

Frozen by my doubt

All that I needed

Was the sound of your heart

Out of the shadows

In my darkest night

I see your face

Your smile is my sunlight

Just knowing you’re there

Makes it all alright

Every time you see me

My happiness is fleeting

Keep the tears locked inside

My eyes are watertight

Every day I’m grinning

But the darkness is still winning

Every fear I will hide

Cause clowns can only cry on the inside

Ooooh

Ooooh

Ooooooooh

Ooooh

Ooooh

Ooooh

Ooooooooh

Every time you see me

My happiness is fleeting

Keep the tears locked inside

My eyes are watertight

Every day I’m grinning

But the darkness is still winning

Every fear I will hide

Cause clowns can only cry on the inside
