I've almost been happy in so many occasions
It was so close, I could feel it inside
I felt it course through my veins and my heart
But I pushed it away when it clouded my mind
Love and happiness
I've wanted it for so long
But I don't understand myself
Because in my head, it feels so wrong
I feel I don't deserve it
The feeling of joy
I keep telling myself that it won't last
And that I'll always be a toy
My head keeps saying that no one will want me
That no one will give me affection
That no one will be my savior
When I'm so close to my destruction
Do I really want it
Or do I just not care
But obviously I do
Or this fake smile, I wouldn't have to wear
