Disguise

Feels like I'm grown

Treading tremendous waters I'm all alone

In my mind 

Seems like I can't find time

Feeling lost

Like love won't stay around

It's hard to stay on that path

Walk straight and look

But how could I walk straight, when I swerve

Turn sides and pages of my life

Pain attatched forever

Successful dreams with unsuccessful means and starts

Vain anger

Terms and headaches linger

I wipe away the tears with a single finger

It's the only way to show No Emotion

Build bridges of demotion

Kept devotion

Travels my world in my eyes

See the lies, the depression that underlies my disguise.
