My life is a play
With me as the star
But if you ask me
I'm more of an extra

My words are a script
But no one follows
They say what they want
And I just tag along

My thoughts are hidden
No one wants to hear
It does them no good
To know what I think

My "friends" are the actors
If you can call them that
Sometimes they're so "real"
And you almost can't see the lies

Myself, I'm the puppet
Attached to the strings
While they control my every move
Waiting for my moment to come

To
Finally
Break
Free

Not some of my best work probably but it feels pretty accurate to my life as of late. Lots of love to whoever decides to read this. Please comment, vote, or whatever with this!
