Never Strong

It's so easy to be an angry, emotional child Dark thoughts filled inside you, running wild Hating the world, hating yourself Pushing good memories to the back of the shelf Want to sink in the mud, and hide your face away From the worried looks they give you every day Some call you strong for surviving this long But I think they might all be singing the wrong song Anyone can sit there and be double sided Be depressed in the dark, and in the light hide it But the ones who are strongest are the ones who fight Who refuse the demons, by day or by night Our moods come and go, but they don't define us It's more than just what we show to outsiders.
