The Great Pretender

Would you look at the Mirror for Me?

I once got home coming from school

Fell to my knees and started sobbing,

Felt terrible, I don't know why.


I cried my heart and

my hand reached over and started working, 

didn't know I would do self-harm.


I scratched my wrist, 

I punched my leg and pull my hair till falling,

but liked the pain didn't knew why.


I started talking to myself

like there's someone listening, 

started to say what's on my heart.


I felt the pain but

still can't tell someone about anything,

'cause when I tell I'd start to cry.



I'll end up crying

Instead of sharing what is in my noggin. 

And People think I've lost my mind.


Once told my mom,

she said I'm sick and just overreacting,

she just sounded like my dad.


Said what I feel

is nothing just a thing in my head,

was invalid so I declined.



I started suppressing my feeling

listening to what they say, 

They are older they must be right.


'cause I'm just a child

what would I know of how I feel or think of, 

they're older so they must be right.
