At myself I turn and stare
All of this pain I cannot bear
Voices screaming from inside
there is too much I'm trying to hide
I don't know what to do
What's wrong? What is the truth?
Everyone's laughing at me
Who am i trying to be?
The world is closing in on me
Demanding who I used to be
There is no joy left inside
No smiles left to fake.
I'm running out of lies to tell
of reasons why I'm not feeling well
I think they are accusing me
of not being the one I seem to be
I cannot hide from what's inside
What is waiting for me to close my eyes
Is this real or all pretend?
No one notices as I fade away.
I try to be who they want me to be
but the real me is breaking free
monsters and voices take control
and whats left for me is better untold.
