Hopeless

Everything seems to be alright
No lies, no trouble, no fight
But is all of that really true?
Do all these people have a clue?
They'll call it "pretend" if I let my feelings show
"Fake" if I let my tears flow
Trying to keep my fear inside
I make it turn away and hide
Don't want to hear criticism and laughter
They make me feel they're my master
Would love to prove them wrong
They still think I'm strong
But on the inside I feel so weak
And care is all I seek
