Fake eyes
Fake smile
Fake face
Fake laugh
Tired of the act
Let me be free
Seems your abuse has followed me
Stuck in a cage
Trapped in my mind
Chaos too much
Bars closing in
Breath short and hard
Heavy on my heart
Grasping and grabbing
Nothing to hold onto
Feels so alone
Darkness scares me
Sleeping is hard
Daylight a zombie
Still living in fear
Fake eyes
Fake smile
Fake face
What a disgrace
Like a caged animal
But in here it's safe
Scared to be free
Abuse has changed me
Healing is hard
Won't let you win
I have come too far
Fear is a motivator
Stress laid on thick
Safe in my cage
Soon to step out
Fake face won't last
Give me some time
Smile will come back
