Easy isn't so simple

It's so easy, in so many ways
To always put yourself down
To feel worthless, never good enough
Seeming always to carry a frown

It's so easy, in so many ways
To feel hopeless, lost, and alone
Feeling you can't control your own life
Or how other's words always cut to the bone

It's so easy, in so many ways
To conform to what they expect of you
To never have to think for yourself
To always do what they want you to

It's so easy, in so many ways
To judge by the outside skin
To always regret but never change The lies you lock away deep within

It's so easy, in so many ways
For you to be blind, refusing to see
That it's so difficult, in too many ways
To have to live your life like me
