So cold
So alone
So afraid
So lost
So scared
Paralyzed in my nothingness
Fake
Oh so fake
That's what I've become
I don't believe
When people say
That I haven't changed
I'm fake
They don't know me
They'll never know me here
Not in hell
Not where I am now
They'll never understand my pain
My anger
My hurt
They'll never give a damn
About when I need a shoulder to cry on
Or just someone to talk to
Because they never have cared
Never have
Never will
End of story
I'm fake
They're fake
Hell, in the end
We're all fake
Even those
Who say they're not fake
Are
Because that's what the human race is
Fake
We live in a world where things
Are meant to be fake
Because the minute you give a damn
The minute you show the real you
Everything
Everyone
That's fake
Beats you back into your mask
Forces you to wear it
So you're fake
Like them
We're a world full of things
People
That are all
FAKE
