The sarcasm you hear is the pain I feel
I'm struggling to find something real
Feeling surrounded by the hate
My life is always up for debate

When I met you I thought it was fate
But then I let you go astray
You traveled where I can't be
Unless I do an awful deed
But one day soon I will see thee
And we will live happily
Both of us will be at peace
Rotting deep down beneath

The smile I wear is a mask
To hide the secrets of my past
For happiness is not real
For my true face will soon be revealed
When it is you’ll hate me so
I’m not the person everyone knows
For when I laugh I’m truly sad
There was no joy in times we had

Love me now or leave me be
I wish to be your only need
To be someone that you can love
Please call me your little dove
I’ll love you more than one can bear
I need the scent upon your hair
I hope you see the love I bring
Waiting for that hope filled ring

The scars I have are not skin deep
They live deep down inside of me
They are not cuts upon my wrist
Or needle marks upon my skin
They are my insecurities
That people have instilled in me
How I’m dumb, ugly, and fat
Not worth their time or a kind act
They hate how I never act my age
Because to me life is a game
I loved to play
But more and more I do see
That the world no longer needs me

My mind is a feeble thing
Coming unraveled at the seams
It lies to me of what it needs
Tells me to hate everything
To be so critical and obscene
Why can’t I just be happy?

We’re just peasants can’t you see?
This is our society
They love to keep us dumb and fat
So they can exploit all we have
I’m sick of bigots and their lies
I’ll jump off now and hope to fly
To a place that will show me
All of its sincerity
