Secrets

These lines on my skin are reality

These secrets I keep are killing me

The happy-go-lucky girl is a fake

Life isn't perfect, I know

But it's so hard to keep going

When everything seems like a lie

The voices ever clamoring

Saying that I am unloved, that I'm a freak

Which I am not denying as the truth

So you start pushing people away

Sweatshirts and long sleeves in summer

People will grow suspicious for sure

But these red lines on my skin are reality

And the perfect girl they think they know

She's just a pretty fantasy
