I'm a Fake

I'm a facade 

I'm not really here

I'm not really there

I'm not anywhere

The mask I wear 

the shame I bare 

its all covered up 

see, I hide 

I hide behind whatever I can find

yet, sometimes I let it slip 

sometimes I let them see

see the real me 

but then my dreams come crashing back to me 

like a waves crashing in the sea. 

they don't want me..not really..

they want someone to be proud of 

someone that can live up to their expectations 

someone to carry on their legend, their legacy 

someone that's NOT ME 

so pay no attention to the man behind the curtain 

because they're broken

they're not worth it. 

all they see is what they can gain 

so blinded by the outside, they don't see what's going on inside 

the war waging on inside of me 

the battlefield I'm fighting on

the well I'm suck in

SAVE ME 

Please Save ME 

CAN"T YOU SEE 

I'm desperately waiting 

Hanging on by a thread 

A thread so thin it can barely hold...

Hold my dreams, my hope, my reality

I'm so tired of fighting...of lying..

it's time to open the curtains 

because I 

I'm WORTH IT.
