On the Inside He
Inside he feels beaten an abused
like he has nothing to lose
he starts to scream for help
then he starts to hurt himself
on the outside he is such a lie
but he's so good he doesn't try
he's able to get the girls
but on the inside doesn't care about the world
soon you can see through his cracks
people start to think he's out of wack
he starts to get bullied
his strings snap
he's cracked
he collapsed
today is O.K.
he's found surrounded next to lies by the bay
