Lost

Lost

I curl up inside

Cuz it makes people happy when I live a lie

So I snap on my childish mask

And a smile that doesn't seem to last

For they treat me as a child all the time

But mature answers they expect me to provide

So fake turns into fate

And now only with the voices do I relate

I am afraid to let them in

For the prospects look to grim

For I have lost myself in murky waters

Trying to please the so called Fathers

I here "I look up to you for knowing yourself"

While I wish to respond how I'm just crying for help

Cuz I don't know who I am within

I'm just trying to find him

Or her

Or them

Who am I again?
