I walk thru a dream world
Where everyone and everything is fake
Every second the same as the last
More suffocating with each breath I take
Everyone around me seems clueless
Maybe they're right and ignorance is bliss
But it seems like I'm the only one who can see
See through the lies others miss
No one else seems to realize
That the truth is buried in lies
Sometimes I lay and cry at night
Tears of anger and pain in my eyes
But each day when the dawn comes
I wake up and put on a mask
Hiding my pain and self pity
Dodging questions that everyone ask
But some days are worse than others
Sometimes the mask slips away
And I can't get rid of the screams in my head
Can't forget what I've heard them say
Maybe I'm wrong to let it bother me
But it seems like I can't let it go
So I live my life day to day
And pray to god I don't let it show
Because I don't want people's pity
Saying they are sorry for what they didn't do
They can't comprehend why I act this way
Why I'm beating myself black and blue
It's just to much to burden them with
It's my problem, not theirs
I've kept this with me for most of my life
It's a burden no one else bares
