Everything I have worked for
crashes down around me.
It burns down to my core
and yet no one can see.
crashes down around me.
It burns down to my core
and yet no one can see.
Not a single soul gets it;
the ideas that make me tick.
For this world I am clearly unfit,
for things are too easy to predict.
If I cannot escape I may explode
into a billion tiny little pieces.
I promise there truly is no secret code
but perhaps it’s time to be speechless.
I feel the emotions boiling inside
just wishing to be let out.
To hold back is what I have to decide
and I won’t lie, I want to shout.
I feel the fire growing in my soul;
I do my best to contain it within.
Every time I get so close to my goal
I find myself having to again begin.
I just wish one person could understand
just who it is that I really am.
Not sure how much I can withstand,
everything seems just like an exam.
It’s an impossible test that I can’t pass
no matter what or how hard I try.
I feel like my body is made of glass
and if it should shatter, I would die.
I can feel the cracks growing ever larger
as people around me destroy the shield.
Hiding from the words becomes harder
as they show no signs that they will yield.
So the fire shall continue to build
until the glass decides to fall away.
And then all I am will truly be revealed
for there will be no one left to obey.
There will be no one left to love or hate
for from sight they shall all vanish.
So you should not underestimate
how much one is truly in anguish.
For it could come back to bite
in the most unexpected fashion.
For now my mouth will be shut tight
but my heart will always be full of passion.
