The Way You Are
I keep my emotions in bottles
And let my inner tears battle
But every once in a while
In words, I hurl those demons out
But you don’t at all, you don’t
I paint my pretence with countless masks
And flood myself with colourful tasks
But every few days, now and then
I surrender and raise my hands
But you never do, you never do
I hide my anger with happy smiles
And curse secretly, nasty and vile
But when the clouds turn to rain
I yell at those beasts with disdain
But you always don’t, you always don’t
You only keep all the aching inside
Let nobody enter from the outside
You always don’t, just like you never will
