You might not see
You just think 'it cannot be'
Don't come talkin' to me
'Cause you won't get it unless you've been through it just like I did
You won't relate unless you fought it since you've been a kid
'Cause you won't know unless you kept all of your mess hid
'Cause that won't help, all you'll be doing is flipping my lid
No, you won't get it unless you've been through it just like i did!
Yeah, look at me I'm smiling
Are you happy now?
Guess I must be okay, right?
Look at me I'm dying
Are you sad now?
Still feel the same though
Only I know, only I care, only I show, only I go
Yeah, I hear to many demons, that shit's mad
They f*ck me up, up in my head
So don't bother asking, I'd hate to be a liar
My lips say 'I'm fine', while my eyes say that I'm tired
But I just play pretend and wear the skin of someone else
I play pretend and wear the skin of someone else
Watch me as I smile, I'm feeling prouder and prouder
While shit in my head keeps gettin' louder and louder
Then I just play pretend and wear the skin of someone else
I play pretend and wear the skin of someone else
Am I mad, oh ? Cause y'alI keep on judging as if I was, oh
You pretend you care, but you really don't, oh
Now I don't talk about it anymore
Unconsciously, I become a shackled detainee
And I've been trying to get out but no one else has got the key
To deal with such a high degree of self-made obscurity
There ain't no remedy, it's on me, only me yeah!
Yeah, look at me I'm smiling
Are you happy now?
Guess I must be okay, right?
Look at me I'm dying
Are you sad now?
Still feel the same though
Only I know, only I care, only I show, only I go
Yeah, I hear to many demons, that shit's mad
They f*ck me up, up in my head
So don't bother asking, I'd hate to be a liar
My lips say 'I'm fine', while my eyes say that I'm tired
But I just play pretend and wear the skin of someone else
I play pretend and wear the skin of someone else
Watch me as I smile, I'm feeling prouder and prouder
While shit in my head keeps gettin' louder and louder
Then I just play pretend and wear the skin of someone else
I play pretend and wear the skin of someone else
