Smile.

Smile.

Fake it.

Til you make it.

That's what they always said, wasn't it?

Did they want me to interpret it this way?

Did they want me to do this?

Did they intend this purpose?

Maybe it was just a metaphor

For success

But mine,

Mine is a metaphor for pain.

Broken. (Anything italicized is a lyric)

'Cause I've been High and I've been low. I've spent a hundred nights alone, trying to hold on.'Cause i'm so scared, there's no one there, to save me from the nightmare that I call myself

Am I broken? Am I flawed? Do I deserve a shred of work? Or am i just another fake fucked up lost cause?

Friendship.

I just

I just want to treat them right

But why is "Right" so hard?

Why is it so stressful, having friends.

Why am I this way?

Why won't people like me?

Why?
