My truth

Wanna know my truth?

No you don't

The world's a hard place but right now it feels so much harder

there's people actually hurting but I'm hurting too

fake hurting

fake fake fake

and I thought I was the realest person I knew 

well

when laughter comes cheap

and everything else is expensive

and your parents' problems become yours

ask them all

you wanna know my truth?

And if they say yes

lie.

  • I used to know you

    I used to know you

    every little kink in your brain

    how your eyes would flash when you were upset

    and your glasses reflected your anger

    you were an open book to me

    and I can still read it - here's the hard part

  • Little one

    Right now

    you just want to play in the snow

    but your snow fort melted

    your tunnel is gone

    your snowsuit is caked with mud

    the world is gray and dreary

    and here comes springtime with the illusion of warmth
