You Dont Know What Its Like To Be Me

You say im happy, you say my life is perfect, you say im so lucky. But you dont know, you dont see, im drowning in the sea, im struggling to breathe, Im struggling to survive, I cant go on, its just to much, surrounded by the tears, the pain, the fears. I want to escape this sea, of dying dreams. I want to be happy, live life to the fullest. I need your touch. Your love, your heart, i need you. I need you to save me, get me out of the sea, keep me from drowning, and not break my heart. I need to keep going. I cant give up. I have much more life to go. I cant give up yet. But you just dont know, how much pain, and suffering i go through, to survive the day. You say im happy, You say my life is perfect, But dont you see, me drowning in the sea? Im not happy, im not perfect, my life sucks. I cant do anything right, im not perfect Im just flowing down this river of crushed dreams. I have my hopes and dreams, but to live your life, knowing they will never come true, is pain, and suffer. You dont know, you donw know what its like to be me, or whats its like to drown in the sea, or flow down the river of crushed dreams, You just dont know, what its like, to be me.
