Take away the filter
And you will see
You will see
A brand new me
Take away the options
The photo games
And you will see
So much pain
Look past the smile
Upon my face
The beaming smile and shining nature
Are nothing but a brace
A brace, No a shield
A shield from the lies
The lies I tell myself
Attempting to feel good inside
Take away the arrogance
The confidence you see
And you will see nothing
But a naked, afraid me
My mouth, its loud
My tongue is nonstop
With every word I say
A piece of the real of me drops
By now I am no longer me
Who I am, I don't know
Maybe I'm just a shell of myself
Destined to the stick to the status quo
You want to be like me
Oh no you don't
Unless you want to be nothing
Nothing, but alone
A stepping stone, on your own
Forced into the danger zone |
