lyrics

When I was young I used to be happy, but this world got the best of me, through negativity I found myself in misery, And now I can't get past this anxiety, I'm sad mad and scared all the time, it helps create this depressed state of mind I call home, this home is a house that I locked the door to long ago to protect me, with nothing inside but this cold breeze to keep me company, Where did it all go wrong, the pure innocence and ignorance I once had is gone, but I was placed on a pedestal of perfection, so I created this mask, this mask of deception because I didn't want to disappoint, a way to hide my flaws and mistakes but also to hide the pain, the pain of pretending and living this life in vain, a fake me to get through life's routine, so people can see I'm okay, I'm still perfect in all my ways, even though I know I'm not, this mask was a reflection of the man I wanted to be, The man I knew they wanted to see, so I keep putting on this mask instead of being me, there's no room for error when it comes to being perfect, but I held that title for so long, but they were wrong, and I was just playing along, in hopes that they would never catch on, I'm a liar, I'm a hypocrite, and I'm sick of it, for all the times I pushed way past the lines and committed these awful and hideous crimes, I'm sorry, I'm so sorry, pointing out everyone's flaws but looking past the mask on my face that hid my wrong, for so long I was trying to change everyone, when I was the one who needed to change, I've left scars that still remain because I was unable to maintain my composure, I'm looking for a way out I knew death could usher this closure, that thought bounced back and forth in my mind, I've grown tired of living this way, going through life not feeling a thing, I wanna attempt to change, but I'm afraid that if I take off this mask you won't like what you see, I've worn it for so long I forgot how to just be me
God save me
