Illusion

I know that my tears don't show And that my pain is unknown But I fear that my Weaknesses will be found And I, in them, Will be bound I didn't want this I didn't ask for it Why? Then why Does this have to be? Im forever hiding Behind this illusion Am I happy? Am I sad? In truth there are few things That make my life worth living I didn't want this I didn't ask for it Why? Then why Does this have to be? You don't know What this is doing to me! You don't know What you are doing to me! Why can't you see me For who I am inside? Why can't you see me For the person I am forced to hide? I didn't want this I didn't ask for it Why? Then why Does this have to be? I just want you to Love me, Love me for the real me.
