I lose the faith easily
That's just something about me
I have no confidence in myself
Therefore I have no confidence in anyone
True friends are few and far between
It's been this way since I was a teen
There is nothing or no one specifically to blame
It's just that life is one big game
I can't escape the person I am
There is just no one that could understand
The way I feel and the way I think
Not even I can find the missing link
I feel so confused, like nothing is real
That's why my true self I try to conceal
Being let down is something I'm used to
It's very difficult for me to have to go through
I always give one hundred ten percent
Only to be left living a life of torment
I hate that I care about people that mean not one thing
I'm looking for love, not just some fling
Spare me your flirtatious words and your meaningless jargon
All of the fake love has left my soul hardened
