People aren’t always who they say they are
They hide it with a mask, or a tattoo on their arm.
People don’t always have life in hand and easy
They cover up the pain like things at home are cool and breezy.

Not everyone is good at covering up a frown
Not every grimace of pain can be turned upside down.
Sometimes even the best artist don’t know their part
Not every painter can turn purple, blue into art.

When people stare it’s hard to ignore
It’s weird being noticed when I never was before.
Why now am I so known, why now do I stand bold?
Even though they notice, I still stand alone?

Point- Stare- Laugh all you like
Those aren’t cuts from my cats, Only falling off my bike.
Laugh, Talk, make so much fuss
It mustn't be important if all you do is cuss

I know I may seem weird, not like you at all
But you never got to know me, before life took a fall.
I'm truer than the truest and never do I hide
You just never cared enough, so I have no one by my side.

Being lonely and scared isn’t always that bad
I’m the truest friend, that I ever could of had.
