I Am Happy
When will it end,
This falseness
So pretend.
Misleading lies retold to get a point across
But which of these lies are legitimately covered up?
transparent with factual truth to seem like in the end this lie,
This lie must be true.
This is what she must do.
Listen to you? Man.. You gotta be outta your mind if it's that what you honestly think I'll do, is
sit and listen to you
Someone who knows nothing what goes on inside
These emotions- they run and hide,
Killing the pride
The emotion the guilt the lie
I have to always uncover because of the coward,
Unable to sit and discuss
Scared to beat emotions, bruise thoughts
Well news flash
It already hurts
Already bleeds
How must I succeed
If I can't make anyone proud.
The fact is it's ignored
There's always better but isn't that a cliche
Anyone could have better?
What if my better was your worse
And vice versa like a curse,
Should I still take orders, take the lies, take the gossip
Cause right now I'm sailing off this ship
Ready to jump off-fall
Lose this all
And maybe after all this thought
Maybe once it's thought through
That the falseness
The pretend are ruining it, ruining what could be
Maybe
Just maybe
You should trust me.
