false reality
I live in a world where no one is sincere
we all lie,we all cheat,and no one really cares
I float my way through,ignoring it all
I pretend not to notice the laughing and the stares.
I walk away knowing that there is a better place.
all I have to do is close my eyes.
In the dark I have my own world,
my own place a place where I matter,a place where no one stares
a place where I am loved and can love openly.
That is where I go when I close my eyes.
My world,my place,my false reality.
everyone's always trying to force me out of hiding
force me into the "real world"
But which is the real world and which is the lie?
The line between fact and fiction is blurred.
I'm losing my grip on reality.
What is truth and what is lies?
In one world I'm a shadow,dark and alone.
In the other I feel no pain,no remorse, no fear
The safest place is inside my head.
Out here all I feel is fear and dread.
Don't try and make me leave my sanctuary for your "real world"
I don't belong there.
I don't think anybody does.
In my world I can be beautiful and free all I have to do is close my eyes and believe.
Take a look around you?
Do you like what you see?
Everything is better in my false reality
