A Piece of Me

Everyday people ask how I'm feeling Simply said I'm doing fine It's the answer you'd hear most often But it is not truly mine When a problem arises I try to run But it seems I don't get very far Because standing in front of me Is a new one filling an old scar So just take a piece of me You know it must be easy Because it happens everyday In the exact same way When I cry people stare and laugh They don't care that they cause it It's just a joke and high inside But they wouldn't ever admit So just take a piece of me You know it must be easy Because it happens everyday In the exact same way
