The Inner Me

Day after day 
night after night 
the inner me i try to push away
but the true me always loses the fight


I hate the inner me
the feelings that aren’t true
causing me to see
the way i make my true love blue


I wish my inside me would go away
let me be the person i want to be
but day after day
i always lose the fight to be free to the inner me
