but i did try, didn't i?
i did try to forget sadness
to be happy all along
to erase every memory of pain
and every single hate
i struggled my way out
out of the abyss
after finally breaking to pieces
but nobody was there
i couldn't feel anyone's presence
just a bunch of scrutinizing stares
far from the world where i was
so i stood up
put on a smile
but no
it was all too perfect
all too good to be true
all pretentious
more bullets would come
and break me once more
since everything was a facade
i easily shattered
and the mask fell down
