Look me in the eyes,
& Tell me the truth.
I'm sick of all the games,
& I'm tired of all the lies.
I know you're hiding something from me,
& I know that you don't want me.
So I don't see the point in staying,
Especially when I'm not worth your loving.
Don't make me promises you won't keep,
& Don't you dare say that you love me,
'Cause I know you don't mean it,
& I never have.
{I'm such a hypocrite}
I'm sick of all the secrets,
I'm sick of all the lies,
& I'm tired of having you speak to me without looking me in the eyes.
Tell me the truth,
'Cause darling, if you really cared about me,
You'd think that I deserved honesty.
& You wouldn't be saying things just to keep me happy so you don't have to say sorry.
{But you're not the only one who's guilty of that}
Darling, if you loved me,
You'd be sure to be there when I cried,
You'd give me a safe place to hide,
& You'd make sure that I'd never let go.
But baby,
You've never been there,
& Every time I tried to hide,
It was you that I was running from.
Darling, this is the end,
'Cause you and I,
We were only pretend.
& Tell me the truth.
I'm sick of all the games,
& I'm tired of all the lies.

Don't make me promises you won't keep,

The Pretend Me
Come with me
And I'll show you the way
My life goes
Each day to day
Show me your smile
You will have to wear it often
If you want to survive
Living my life
You see
If I didn't wear my smile
People would stare
And ask me questions
Eventually I wouldn't be able
To keep my composure
And the tears would begin to flow
Out like a flood
Now do you see my wardrobe?
You might want to grab one of the hoodies
Or an arm warmer
Or they won't leave you alone
They you say?
The people I live with
They don't really understand
The reasoning
Behind the scars
They haven't experienced
What
Literature
Pretend
All of my life,
I've played pretend.
At five,
I was a princess.
At seven,
I was a cowgirl.
At ten,
I was a creature of myth.
Now at thirteen,
I pretend to be normal.
Fake a smile,
fake a laugh.
No one really cares,
So I pretend I don't hurt.
Pretend to be happy,
But I'm drowning.
Come with me,
We can play pretend together.
Literature
She's a Dreamer
She was born for the night,
Drinking the milkyway
And eating the stars.
Set adrift on a dreamboat,
Dreaming to never wake up.
She's a fighter,
A rebellion,
A spark in the brush.
She's a daredevil,
A dreamer,
A child of luck.
She was born for the night,
And made Queen of the Stars,
Because above the world,
Can we then see, who we are.

i really like it... i think because it makes you think, and sets thoughts wandering about what is and what should be felt...
