shh don't tell
don't break the spell
this image I'm trying so hard to create
that state I want so badly to escape
give me freedom
give me choice
give me joy
stop this ploy
shh don't tell
don't break my fragile spell.

Somedays you spill your heart out and people accept it. Thats how you make some of the greatest friends. They see your worst and like you anyway. but some people see it and they turn then run away. Trying on a mask. Just for awhile, shh don't tell.

Life is a long journey, it is a long race. Nd in this long race of life evry1 is struggling. Some r trying to find true happiness, others r trying to keep walking on this long road of life, some r just waiting for their life to pass away nd some r merely trying to keep up the fake madk ov happiness not caring for the tears welling up inside them. But i guess tht at the end of the dat we r who we truly r nd a mask can't hide our face 4ever.
