Happier in Denial

How much I didn’t want to hear those words
The words that set me free
How much I didn’t want to hear those words
That would save me from me
I didn’t want to see the truth
I was happier in denial
I didn’t want to see the light
I didn’t want to feel needful
But you had to say those words
You had to make me see
You had to tell the truth
You couldn’t just leave me be
I know you wanted to make me feel better
On the inside
But all you accomplished
Was showing me the pain it implied
Because before you told me
I could still lie
Make myself seem happy
Make nothing seem awry
But now I am forced to see
And leave my blissful pain
So now maybe
I’ll be a little more sane
I know you tell me no one’s perfect
I still don’t want to hear
Show me how much
That I actually fear
I fear what others think
Even though how much I try
How much I tell myself that I want to stand out
But in reality now I know that inside I do cry
I cry at every skeptical look
Every time I am out of place
Make a fool of myself
Or make a simple mistake
I know I should be stronger than this
I know I shouldn’t cry
But the truth has set me free
And now I have to deal with this pain with me myself and I

| Nice, If we could all live in our own denial- we'd all be set |
