Description
I'm like an apple that fell from the tree long agomy appearance is a lie
On the outside I seem whole, happy, beautiful.
on the inside i'm broken, damaged, no use to anyone
I try to keep it in telling people i'm fine
i'm used to it I don't feel it anymore
And they believe me
never questioning what I say
Never thinking that something so perfect on the outside
could be slowly breaking down underneath
I'm lost, alone
surrounded by hundreds of people but i'm only a rock in their shoe
Something to be discarded when i'm not longer of use
thrown away a hundred different times, by a hundred different people
A plant that tries to reach for the sun
but is trapped in the shadows of those that keep it down
All I want is for the world to see my flowers
hear my song, but i'm quiet
Silenced by the same people that help build me up
unable to fight against it
I'm trapped
stuck in this fishbowl while the world stares and laughs
And they don't know how deeply they cut
or how many tears i've had to hide
Behind this mask that I wear for those that couldn't see anyway
because I don't want them to see me
And so I live my life
Praying that I can make it through, one day at a time
And I do...
