Fake

You see me wonder, you see me dream
but inside I struggle and I scream
all I try to do is make you happy
but it's not working, I'm left feeling crappy
you think I'm ok as I look up to the sky
what you don't know is I secretly want to die
I lay on my bed just to avoid the fight 
when really, you should just get out of my sight
you think you're helping me but I'm going insane
now my only feeling is purely pain
