Sliping, sliding, falling..

by Cimara   Dec 15, 2005


Slipping, sliding, falling,
slowly spiralling down.
I am crumbling to pieces,
without making any sound.

Trying to scratch at the walls,
trying to hold on tight,
but still slowly tumbling down,
struggling to put up a fight.

Keep putting on a smile,
never ever frown.
Don't let them see it's hurting,
or even getting me down.

Put on my mask for everyone,
wipe away those silly tears.
Hide behing that good old mask,
I must hide my troublesome fears.

They've turned on me,
and I've now got nowhere to go,
but my worry and dismay,
I am not allowed to show.

My options are so limited,
my future is so bleak.
I'm trying to be strong,
but inside I feel so weak.

All i want is to be happy.
I only want to be free,
so that i can live life how i want.
So i can simply be the real me.

But I don't know what to do,
I'm struggling to get through it all.
I'm so scared that I'll keep plummeting,
with no one there to break my fall.

Slipping, sliding, falling,
slowly spiralling down.
I am crumbling to pieces,
without making any sound...
