Used to lie to friends, Say I was millionaire, That I was daddy’s trust fund baby, Living without a care. The truth was, in practice, Hard to bear. The plain fact was I just wanted up and out of there No more Always living on the brink, No more A scared, scarred broken link, No more Downward sinking, screaming someone save me, please! No more There goes another half my soul this week. My mind was a dark lair of horrid wares, So trust when I say I was as disfigured inside as out. And, now, I’m not so sure, Now Have things come to a turnaround? Now that I’ve found my two hearts. Now I have both my true love and writing. So how Do I still feel the noose there, And how come It won’t stop tightening?

Fake Millionaire
Used to lie to friends, Say I was millionaire, That I was daddy’s trust fund baby, Living without a care. The truth was, in practice, Hard to bear. The plain fact was I just wanted up and out of there No more Always living on the brink, No more A scared, scarred broken link, No more Downward sinking, screaming someone save me, please! No more There goes another half my soul this week. My mind was a dark lair of horrid wares, So trust when I say I was as disfigured inside as out. And, now, I’m not so sure, Now Have things come to a turnaround? Now that I’ve found my two hearts. Now I have both my true love and writing. So how Do I still feel the noose there, And how come It won’t stop tightening?
