Real or Not Real?


Oh darling there’s nothing wrong with you, It’s just the struggle of these days. Don’t you dare listen to society And her evil, changing ways. You see my dear, Everyone lies and everyone cheats The good inside us Suffers many defeats. So you want to fight off these monsters? And you want to start now? Of course it can be done, If you know how. Look beyond what confronts you, See through the false faces. Every person has something worth finding, Perhaps deep down, in some cases. Don’t worry about what anyone deserves, That’s not for you to decide. Rather, give your whole self And swallow your pride. Start a chain reaction darling, Let the madness know its time is through. And when you tell someone you love them, Do everything to prove it’s true.
