Fake

I act like I'm fine but as Freddie said "I'm a great pretender
No, I do not need you to be sympathetic
I am filled with so much pain and confusion
I wish that this was an illusion
But I feel so empty and pathetic
Tired and lethargic
No words can actually explain what's wrong with me
I simply can not fathom what I feel
I just want to be set free
To be free indeed and to move like the sea
I'll do anything for someone to take my pain away
Is it that I must bow my head and pray
Or do I just play along
And try to stay strong
Well, I guess I'll pretend like I'm fine
And pass by like time
