The Wrong Road

Letting my emotions out I only recently did start I bottled everything up, I thought I was protecting my heart. Drink and drugs helped to escape my reality I used fake smiles and vanity. I went through life lying to you and myself I wasn't me, it wasn't good for my mental health. With more and more anger built up everyday I guess a violent drunk you could say. I'd wake up in the morning and find out what I'd done Any help I would shun. I was never really happy, I was never really free How could I have been, I was never really me. I was trapped in your fake world, playing the Banksters game They nearly had me believing that we were the same. My mind and soul would always rebel I realize now they just wanted to escape this Hell. To be a perfect man I seriously doubt But I'm free! I no longer want to scream and shout. I found a different road, I started a new journey I still don't know where I'm going, I'm still looking for me.
