I wrote this tong I went through anxiety.

PRETENDER

I pretended to be fine, for everyone to see

Yes! I'm weak, I can't be like the others

I cry over petty small things

Words are more painful than any.

I pretended to be strong, for everyone to see

Yet, I'm really broken and dying inside

I am still trying and trying to fit

Trying to fit into the new world, to feel belong.

What can I do? I can't be someone else

I am me! Soft and weak

Someone who's pretending but can't pretend that long

Emotions are too visible in my eyes, can't hide it.

People that I love and trust, hurts me the most

I am trying and trying to understand 'em

Pretending to be strong and fine in front of many

But can't succeed, I tend to broke down and cry but after everything, I still stood and pretended to be fine.
