My Hero?
You asked how I am, I said I'm okay
But that's just what I'm trained to say
Keep my head up and smile wide
Push down the anger I feel inside
Don't you know it's not that easy
To wear a smile so fake and cheesy?
I guess it's good we all wear a mask
Since this is becoming an impossible task
I don't care about the things you said
They never do stay long in my head
There's just no understanding me
If you can't feel any empathy
You say you love me, you say you care
But when I need you you're never there
How can I trust you with my heart
When you always tear it apart?
If you do care, then make it show
Cause honestly I just don't know
If to you it's fun and games
To watch my sanity go up in flames
You're my hero? Is that the truth?
Don't even try, there is no use
There's nothing left of me to save
So don't go crying over my grave
