Facade

They don't see it

Why should they?

They don't see my fear

They think they're all that

Laughing at my pain

They run around

Ignoring me

Laughing at my hesitation

They try

I know they do

Why do I have these thoughts?

I keep on moving

Fear in my steps

But they don't see

It pains me to think

Of way back when

When everything went wrong

What am I doing

In this life of mine

Aimlessly seeing

Different people

Different places

Milling through life

Trying so hard to make up

For what I've done

Please if there's a God

Let him hear me now

I'm despairing

I feel so afraid

I believe that I'm desperate

I feel so alone

But I put on my happy face

And wish you could read my thoughts

I don't believe that being alone

Can cause such depression

Without good cause

So with a smile and wave

I'll keep this facade

Waiting for the day

When someone will see through

And I can rest at last
