~ Endure it all ~

"It'll be alright"
I hear over and over
All say the same

Will it be alright?
Will it ever?
Will I endure this?

How long shall I?
For how long have I?
Why am I?

All expects you
Expects you to get over it
Expects you to be better

All Expects you
Expects you to be brave
Expects you to never cry

If your tears fall
They all would say
"What a dimwit"

They all agree
They never understand
They never try to

They all expect
They all demand
They all push you

Expect you to be best
Demand that you listen
Push you over the edge

They don't think over
They don't feel pain
They don't feel guilt

They think you're iron
They think you're cold
They think you're happy

"It's for your own good"
That's all they say
"This is not for us, for you"

This world is full of expectations
This world if full of hard work
This world is full of tearful eyes

If you fail, then shame
Succeed, guess not bad
Success to failure, utter shame

Satisfying them is a job
Being miserable is a hobby
Endure it all is must
