Flicker of Us

They say they know me I know they lied

Because I don’t know who I am on the inside

They say you look strong,

he’s a good kid But they don’t know all the pain that

I hid You know the basics,

cover it up

don’t show weakness but I’ve been throwing in the rough

I can’t deal with it anymore

But how do I open the door

To tell them how I truly feel

Okay listen up here’s the deal

Show sadness as laughter

Just smile so there’s no a disaster When your outside no tear

down the cheek But when I’m alone I mostly weep But how

do I unlock the key So I can brake out of the

cage

and be

Free I

see someone out in public I toughen up Like my usual self

would be enough

What if I turn away and they start to laugh There sound

feeling like I’ve had a whiplash Runaway runaway but I can’t be

scared

I’m in a race

be the tortoise not the hare

I can’t deal with it anymore

But how do I open the door

To tell them how I truly feel

Okay listen up here’s the deal

Show sadness as laughter

Just smile so there’s no a disaster When your outside no tear

down the cheek But when I’m alone I mostly weep But how

do I unlock the key So I can brake out of the

cage

and be

Free

But what if life isn’t as bad as it seems But sometimes

is coming out to speak that makes you weak

I can’t deal with it anymore

But how do I open the door

To tell them how I truly feel

Okay listen up here’s the deal

Show sadness as laughter

Just smile so there’s no a disaster When your outside no tear

down the cheek

But when I’m alone I mostly weep But how do I unlock

the key So I can brake out of the cage

and be

Free
