Not Easy Being Me

by manic moments   Sep 2, 2006


It's not so easy being me
A caged soul longing to be free
A blackened heart wishing to fly
Up and away into the dreary sky

It's not easy being who I am
Even if most people believe it's a sham
Bit by bit I fall apart
And everyone tramples over my heart

It's not easy living like this
All the things I really miss
One by one the pieces fit
And I lose myself with each bit

It's not easy being me
A constant line of thought to see
Promise made, promise gone
I wish I never knew what a promise was all along

It's not easy being alone
I keep trying to find my way home
Lost with confusion, where have I gone?
I wonder each and every morn

It's not easy being alive
In this world that constantly thrives
I strive, I try, I make an effort
But I might as well turn around and forget it

It's not easy being me
Wishing all the times just to be
I watch life past me by
The moving clouds in the sky

It's not easy being here
In this world full of fear
Where to turn, where to hide?
Wonder if I should be a suicide?

It's not easy being real
Yet someone's touch I cannot feel
Morrow's coming every so fast
In the ending night that never should have last

It's not easy being me
In a world that cannot see
It's not easy being me
In a place that won't let me free

it's not easy being me
It's Not Easy Being Me
It'S nOt EaSy BeInG mE
IT'S NOT EASY BEING ME
