"The Me Nobody Would Ever See"

I hide what I feel inside For fear of what you might say. If life is like a roller ride Then mine could fly off the tracks any day. Music eases my troubled soul And relieves my stress as a whole. If you were to come in my room You wouldn't see my inner gloom. I smile on the outside So that you won't realize I'm dead on the inside. If you really looked into my eyes You'd find the reveal all my outward lies. I am impossible to label no matter how hard you try Because I'll retain my individuality until the day I die. I fall too easily Even though I know You could never love me I still smile and keep up the show. I try to look on the brighter side But I see so much pain When you see the true person they hide Your thoughts would never be the same. I don't care to fit in If you were like me And had to live in my skin You is all you'd want to be.
