I've got a lot of things going on, I've felt like this a lot in the just past school year. This goes out to all my friends that I have.
Too MuchI put on a smile
Because you need me to
Everyone never sees
What I hide underneath.
You found out the truth about him
He made you a "rebound girl"
It was done with you two
Now I smile for you.
He flirted with you every day
He would instantly stop when you said so
You got in a fight
"All men need to die"
It was thought as a crush
He's not straight
We didn't care
You got the fuzzy feeling.
We'd read something sad
Send hugs over the phone
Give them at school
Offer the comfort needed.
Signs were posted
You felt like crying
It was a friend you considered very close
But you still don't know.
You passed the party
It was your sweet sixteen
You missed the opportunity
But you don't regret it….yet.
You went to the hospital
We came and visited
I put on my happy smile
Treated you the same
He has a girlfriend
They seem odd.
You're confused
"He should be mine"
You think that it's working out
He thinks that it's not
You're happy as ever
In his arms
He flirts with you more now
His girlfriend is blissfully unaware
You know the truth
But don't know what to think.
She's having more trouble now
You two put on the face
One hates the way the other acts
The other blissfully unaware.
You're going out with him
The biggest player in the school
He made one his "rebound girl"
But you don't understand.
Your parents don't trust you
Because of one night on the phone
I listen and smile
And offer hugs when needed.
You saw a picture
It kept you up all night
I gave the hug
And helped you through it
I listen to all of you
I give what comfort that I can
I held you each close
Offered what I can
Now it's overwhelming
I can't take it all
I keep it locked inside
Letting the smile shine
If you truly knew me
You'd see the sadness in my eyes
When I stare off
I think of it all
Only one ever noticed
The sadness that I carry
She held me close
Comforted me
I've known her my whole life
She's the only one who asked
The only one who really offered
The comfort that I always do.
Sometimes I feel like huddling into a corner
Other times like screaming
When I get like that
I call those close to me
Everything around me
It swirls around
I just feel that it's all
Too Much.
