Untitled

Dreams of a big future including familia and friends.
Crushed by the stone of reality, it's like a madness with no end.
I reach goals yet no one cares to be happy for me.
Down talking, disrespecting, feels like i'm in prison begging to be free.

Hide the scars with makeup.
Cover up the tears with a frown turned up.
Laugh when the pain is too much to handle.
Watching my lyfe slowly fade like the flame from a candle.

How is it I can find peace in a religion thats not my own?
Been away, no one welcomes me home.
Covered in disbelief for the ones that don't care
Peace in any religion is prayer...
