I walk through the world of friendship
Confused, what to do
What should I say?
What should I do?
Should I keep quiet or should I speak?
Should I ignore everyone or grab their attention?
Should I wear my mask or show my true self to them?
Should I put my filter on or should I turn it off?
I don't know what to do, I just stand there with all these thoughts running through my head.
Few approach me
They ask my name and my story.
Did they talk to me out of pity or cause they wanted to be my friend?
I'm afraid what they'll think of me,
Will they accept the crazy me?
The sensitive one
The emotional mess
The weirdo
The shy one
The scared me
I don't know who I should be in front of them,
Who I am or who they expect me to be
So I tell them my name but not my story.
More I spend time with them, the more I trust them.
I feel ready to share my stories.
I call them my lifelines,
Lies naked in front of them all my scars and demons
I've stripped off my mask in front of them to show them the girl who I really am
I tell them each and every dark secret of mine.
No longer in front of them is the girl with the mask, it's the girl who I am
They are my lifelines.
I tell them what's going on in my head,
The demons inside me
The battles I'm fighting,
I tell them each and everything cause, they are my lifelines,
But sometimes I wonder if they consider the same,
Am I their best friend or the third-wheel?
Do they spill their secrets in front of me?
Do they tell me about their demons and scars?
Is that their real faces or their mask?
Cause, I feel they're hiding something from me
Am I nuisance to them?
I'll never know
Lies in front of them all my scars, demons, the battles I've fought, my happiness and sorrow
Lies in front of them the REAL ME
But what lies in front of me?
Is it all their scars, demons, battles they've fought, their happiness and sorrow,
IS IT the REAL them
I'll never know
One thing I always know is no matter what happens,
There are my real friends out there looking out for me.
Accepting me just the way I am
Helping me fight my demons and battles
Laughing with me when I'm happy
Supporting me when I'm sad
Kilometres apart or next to each other,
WE will always be together.
