Smokescreen
Can they see me through my camouflage
Do you see how hard I try
Its just became so routine now
To answer questions with a lie
I dont know why Im like this
Its a heavy load to bare
I can never just say im hurting
Deep down I know they care
So who exactly am I fooling
When each time i brush it off
There really is no good parts
Certainly no payoff
Im grand im good im ok
The stupid things I say
That little hesitation
When they ask how Im doing today
Things are getting slowly better
Well at least thats what I think
Ive found a little release now
That takes me from the brink
There is one thing that makes me laugh
How good my advice can be
Pity it works for everyone else
I cant hear it when its me
Its important to keep going
To wherever lIfe may lead
Try to give yourself a break sometimes
And find out what you need
So thats the path I choose to take
I think I finally see the way
positive taught.s and affirmations
Surely help you through the day
