If only deceiving myself was as easy…..

By so_skeevy

Today you say I’m distant,
But if you only knew
The torment in my head is eating its way through
It’s hard to hold it in; it’s hard to even smile
It’s hard to fake happiness, but I’ve been doing it a while.
How i wish for ignorance, i wish i didnt care
i wish that when i needed it, hope was always there.
And ill sit here and laugh, ill smile like nothing's wrong
But i cant help but think my goddamn life's too long


If only deceiving myself was as easy…..
