Stand Alone

by You Can Speak But I Can Rhyme   Apr 19, 2011


I can't put into words,
For the things I'm feeling;
It's been a long time;
And I'm here still healing,
Things are changing and i don't like it,
I'm being ignored,
And i guess it's the way people like it...

I've had my days,
Fun and laughter,
But sadness and darkness is my home,
For I've lived here,
I've cried and been alone,
Without any fear;
Opening up to this world,
Is the greatest mistake;
That I'm supposed to bear...

OH I've heard them say,
People move on;
I've tried that myself,
Just place your foot in my shoes
And walk on,
Maybe then you'll realize;
How difficult it is,
To keep it all inside,
And how painful it is,
To just pretend and smile on the outside...

No matter how much they defend,
They have used me,
My heart, my kindness,
And my time,
taken from me;
Yet in the face of the world,
They act like nothing happened,
That's right,
Coz who wants to see in the darkness,
When all they do is pretend.

I stand alone here,
As i see this world around me,
Too bad, i failed to change,
Things are gonna be the way it is...
My patience has run thinned,
While all of them kept their mask on,
Be true to yourself people,
Coz when reality knocks your door?
It all comes down pretty hard...
