It is easy Just to give up Just to stay in bed Why bother This can be anyone A friend, a teacher, a bully Someone from home A sibling, a father, a mother This could be you It is easy to want to cry Hide away Just disappear But you are told no Be strong This is your burden It is yours to bear Just going trough life Going trough the motions Wear your mask Wear your smile Will the feeling last How long Will it go away Or is it staying awhile Am I stuck Trapped in this cage Going around in a rut No way out No one will hear me No one will listen No matter what Even if I yell and shout Everyone feels like this But we only know the me It is only how I feel No one knows how I feel But everyone have these feelings Everyone thinks this way But we built this wall This is real You can't come in The wall is up You don't know Just to give up on everything This is the life we are given The life we live This is the story that is written The song we sing
