I Am Not

I'll smile, even though my heart is torn in two
I'll laugh, even though something's gone from inside me
I'll be fine, even though I'm not

I'll go out with my friends, even though my thoughts are with you
I'll date, even though that kiss is for you too
I'll be fine, even though I'm not

I'll carry on, even though my life is at a halt
I'll pretend it doesn't bother me, even though 
the pain tears at me night and day
I'll be fine, even though I'm not

I'll say all the love is gone, even though my heart still beats for you
We never met, even though I know we did
I'll be fine, even though I'm not
