Try living your life
when it feels like a lie
confident and secure on the outside
but all you really want is to curl up and die
You're not what they think
you were never that good
and people's faith in you
makes you feel misunderstood
Your dreams are high
your ambitions are too
you want to kiss the sky
or fly to the moon
but how can you fly
with your wings hacked off
bloody remnents on the ground
jarring you into the reality of what you can't
the pressure increases
as does the pace
you know you'll never win the race
yet you're afraid to let everyone down
because while their beliefs might be misplaced
deep down you really need their faith
to keep you going
and give you a cause
to fight a losing battle just because
the temptations to great
as are the stakes
and you can't stop
even if you wanted too
