I can relate to this song. For me it's about not wanting to let people down. Sometimes people expect so much from you and you're so scared of letting them down the smallest flaw is blown way our of propertion really bringing you down, "You cry, but you don't tell anyone". You don't want to let them down so you keep your misery to yourself, instead masking it behind a smile. But inside everything is spiralling downwards more and more. The person you see as yourself has everything little fault magnified and dwelled upon whilst the good bits are ignored. Inside you're falling apart but you don't let anyone else see it lest you disappoint them that you're not really as perfect as they think. I know that sometimes you've just got to put yourself above others but it's easier said than done...
