“I feel very dependent on people’s mood and that’s a really bad addiction because you’re always expecting something good when it’s not up to your own actions.

You think people can make you happy but the thing is
They don’t even know how you feel about them and most of the time, they just don’t ******* care.
They like you for a day and find you annoying.
When they see you, they’re smiling but they hate you in secret.

They wanna make you believe you’re a nice person
But stab you in the back when they talk to other people.

What’s gone wrong I wonder and who are they?
I found out they were closer than I’d like to own up.

My neighbors, my classmates
Former friends or students I’ve talked to once cause they asked for my help.

They’re everywhere and think the same.
They swear on truth but their mouths speak poison
Their eyes are snakes and whatever they say, it’s a lie that comes out.

How can they be honest when they’re lying to themselves?
They don’t know about love, about trust.
I hate how they pretend to be free when they’re just lost but they don’t know it
They’re ignorant and they’re mean and I’m so sick of their tricks
I’d do anything to make them see it.

It’s hurtful and destructive
The anger won't wear off
And I wanna stop believing they know what they’re capable of.

Someday they’ll wake up and realize it’s useless to claim they don’t care
Cause they don’t know it but they do.
That’s a thing they hate to admit but they should.

And it’s alright to be weak
Being true isn’t a flaw.
Stop kicking your heart so hard
It’s just waiting for you to grow".
