Falling down and still holding myself,
Why is it always me?
My look-alike, my dusty bookshelf
I can’t unsee.
Every teardrop filled with chaos,
What is the fault with me?
Feelings feel lost,
My soul wants to flee.
I wear a smile, but it’s just a disguise,
A mask I made so none can see.
Will someone ever look past my eyes,
And still choose to stand with me?
No one ever asks me to stay,
Is “I’m here” too much to hear?
I don’t need to lead your way,
Just want someone near.
Will you accept my flaws?
I’m not the one for you
People see you with dropped jaws
They see me, they want me to renew.
Trying to heal,
Dying to change
No one knows how I really feel
I’m unlike others, is that strange?
