Because I've seen what my mind is capable of
Creating worlds and people and love
Destroying them, too

And my circle encourages me
But I know the truth
The world isn't as nice
As they make it out to be

A few kind compliments
Don't make up for the fact
That the real world can't handle
The fantasy I pack

Instead I numb myself
With videos and games
Inconsequential texts

Because if I were to be the maker
The writer, the creator
I can't fathom how the world would tear me apart

Talent can't face what reality is like
