My Shadow
Sometimes I just want to sit down and cry
Look in the mirror and ask myself why.
When will the good outweigh the bad?
When will I get back all that I had?
I look back and I know it can't change,
I look forward but it's all out of range.
All I can do is hope for the best
and try my hardest to figure out the rest.
It all went downhill and all so fast
I keep wondering how long I'll last
Keep the smile printed on my face,
Even if it's fragile as lace.
They'll never know all of me,
Only know what I want them to see.
Watch my wall crumble down
and you'll see I'm not as happy as I sound.
