Been feeling empty inside
Asking myself daily why
Keeping a smile I'm afraid to cry
Saying I'm okay but he knows it's a lie
I have so much I wanna do
I have no clue
Why I cant fit into these shoes
The glass slipper it's too tight
I cant fit it even with all my might
I wanna reach the top but there's no height
I need a ladder but it's my fright
Keeping me behind these steel bars
Peeking through the small space
I can see the sky
I can feel the breeze on my face
But I cant reach it
My arms too short
My mind doesn't comprehend
I have it all
But i dont want it if i cant be it all
I got the answers
But I still have unanswered questions
I still have hard lessons
I need to learn
Still have my stripes I gotta earn
****** expressions ease up always stern
My heart means well
But with each good act It churns
Into pieces my pride falls
Crumbles everytime i see a smile or laugh
That's what you want it's not me
I wont be jaded my eyes open and they see
The truth behind your love
The meaning in all your hugs
You just want that love she gave you
You want it but she dont want you
So you pretend to love me
While loving her from the distance
Daily checkups making sure she knows your existence
All while breaking my heart in one instance
But you dont know you are
Because i smile and kiss you every night
Pretending that my soul is alright
But I'm just allowing you to pretend that we gone make it through
All the while I still feel like the fool
The fool in love the fool for loving you
