What is a filter?

A thing to hide behind?

A painted on disguise?

To attract the guys

 The world we live in we have to try so hard to fit in

I can not pretend

So maybe that's why I don't fit in

I can never pose with imposters

Or Make the impossible possible

I could never censor my thoughts

 I would never taint my heart

The world in which we used to know has disappeared

All because of the filters

I see the truth behind your lies

And hurt  in your eyes

Because you feel the need to impress the guys

I read between the lines

It's no crime

I live with no filters
