im perfectly broken
and soundly insane
the words left unspoken
burrow and rot in my brain
i entertain thoughts
i know arent real
to calm the anxiety
and nightmares i have still.
so ill smoke my pipe
ill pop my pills
and ill drown with booze
the pain it kills
to not have to wonder
where i went wrong
so those who see me
will still believe im strong
ill strut my facade
and live in my mask
my performance theyll applaud
and quietly ill ask
how no one can tell
this is just a show
it doesnt matter, oh well
because theyll never know.
