False Embrace
-Five
I woke up one day with so much eyes around.
Eyes that follows even when I don't want to be found.
It caused me fear that made me bear all the sorrow
To regain my strength is to be friend with a shadow.
Looking for freedom, found a town that's fabricated
Danced and laughed with the shadow, worth actuality I've traded
Don't want to leave the joy, a fairy thought that I'm ill
So she brought me to white palace and it put the town to a seal.
Now paper and pills is what fills my life
Just to stop thinking that pain could only end through a knife
At night I earnestly ask for strength for tomorrow
To make sense of this life that God made me borrow.
I hope that one day I will run out of pill to swallow
I won't feel tired to be awake, I will stop feeling hollow
When I say I'm okay, I won't be required to prove it
No need to prove that I'm happy cause I really mean it.
