This life is not how I wanted it to turn out,
Everybody is not themselves,
Acting up to the expectations that will never be reached!

My head is spinning in random circles,
I'm trying my best to cling on to the little sanity I have left,
The hope for humanity is slowly dying out.

You ask for my opinion and then expect me to lie,
The deception of everything being fine,
Nothing is real anymore to me.

You build up mental walls so I cannot see the real you,
The human that you try so hard to hide from the world,
A mental battle between yourself everyday no matter what!

Why so cruel and so ignorant,
I too struggle with who I'm meant to be,
You are insensitive to the feelings of others.

We all have to fall in order to get back up,
You dust it off and try again not giving in,
In the end you gain more strength and experience.

So don't put yourself into this pessimistic mindset,
And don't be afraid if the steps that you take are a little rough,
Cause I know that you are just like me - a human with the wrong mindset for this day and era!
