Running away from who I am
Keep on posting on Instagram
Keeping up with social image
Never exploring my limits
Nobody should know I am a mess
Everybody thinks I am #blessed
I must confess
Behind this made-up face and pretty dress
I am distressed
People think I have no problems
Scrolling through and looking at all the models
I have hit rock bottom
Poisoning myself with these toxins
It just makes me nauseous
People just assume they know me
They are obnoxious
Guess I got to put my fake face on
I am far gone
Just a pawn
In this huge game of never-ending chess
Nevertheless
I just have to keep on moving on
Accepting I am the black swan
I am the oppressed
Secrets Are Made To Hide
