I can't always be happy. Don't assume I'm okay. I lie A Lot .
I don't want to be comforted. I want things to be right. I want too much.
Just let me cry it out, I'll be okay. Or will I? Take me away. Far away.

I can't always be happy. My thoughts are too loud. Fake. Fake. Fake.
Don't lie to me, tell me the ugly truth. I need to hear it. I want to fix myself
Let me fix myself. Fix me. Make me perfect. But that's impossible.

I can't always be happy. I'm completely fake Pessimistic, cruel, judgmental world.
Change me. Make me as you want. Make me happy.
Make me in your image. I'm clearly the opposite of that now. Escape.

I can't always be happy. Help me I'm falling. Quickly catch me before it's too late.
Is it too late? Am I mad?
Who says I'm not? Pathetic. Ugly. Fat. Weak. Disappointment.

I can't always be happy. Fake people everywhere. They lie. Liars.
Am I a liar? Am I a ******? Am I desperate? Am I seeking attention? Is this a cry for help?
No.                No.                     No.                     No.                                   No.

I can't always be happy. When am I truly happy? Am I fake?
Tell me a story of a better place. Far away from my mind.
Fake, Fake Fake. Everyone is fake, but I'm the biggest faker of them all.

I can't always be happy. I don't need help, leave me be. I can work it out, alone.
Don't analyse me. Don't reprimand me. I've been good. I've kept everyone else happy.
Isn't that my job? Let me bottle it up, that's what I do best.

I can't always be happy. Don't assume. I have other feelings too.
Don't be surprised. Get away from me. I need a change.
Change in what? Change in anything.

I can't always be happy. I'm lonely.
How can one be so lonely with so many people around? I have no clue.
I don't belong anywhere. Is that so? *Don't go.
