My messed up past still haunts me everyday 

and my mind wills me to speak but my mouth cant find the right words to say

People tell me i need to open up and say whats on my mind

but the more i think about it i wanna runaway and hide

They dont understand my pain and my tears

and sometimes i wonder if my head will ever be clear

No matter how hard i try to get them to understand 

its like things go backwards and things get out of hand

All i want is to have a life to myself for awhile

to get away from everyone and leave my anger in a pile 

They try so hard to make me the perfect one

and the harder they try  the more i want to turn around and run

They think that what they are showing me is that something called love

but is that really what they are showing me when push comes to shove

They think that im just depressed and i just need time

but the only thing i need is for them to understand that i cant be perfect on a dime

They think that they know me but the truth is they dont 

but that doesnt stop them for always thinking i'm wrong

How would you feel if you were alone in this world

but thats a question left unanswered and for now unfurled
