Surfaces portray characters just as my favorite book does To look past is to see depth in water as black as night Unattainable only through lack of effort Try harder Work harder Be harder Are commands we hear Day in Day out What if I can't What if I have Tried hard Worked hard Been hard And each time I've been Out done Not strong enough Broken You can't see this in the surface All you see is your strength And I like it that way Cause it means you Don't see my weakness

The Surface
Surfaces portray characters just as my favorite book does To look past is to see depth in water as black as night Unattainable only through lack of effort Try harder Work harder Be harder Are commands we hear Day in Day out What if I can't What if I have Tried hard Worked hard Been hard And each time I've been Out done Not strong enough Broken You can't see this in the surface All you see is your strength And I like it that way Cause it means you Don't see my weakness
