I’ve been going too long

Trying to wear a different face

Pushing too hard

To live the lie that I’m okay

You try to soothe me

Please just go away

I’m so fake

Can’t seem to make it

Through the day

On the outside I look like Superman on a Segway

When really deep inside I’m lower than a subway

There’s gotta be a different way

To deal wit hthe mistakes I’ve made

Justify how I’ve behaved

But maybe I’m just far too late

Is this my reality?

To mask the beast inside of me

Never let the people see

What lurks in my soul way down so deep

Please

Don’t tell me this is it

Pretending is not the finish

There’s gotta be more to it

Just show me how to do it

Before it’s

Too

Late
