I'm stuck inside myself.
Attacked by all my feelings,
attacked by all my pain.
I'm stuck inside my head,
and I'm dead to the world.
Everyone around me is living,
they seem truly happy,
they go out and do things.
And then there's me...
I'm the girl who throws
out small smiles,
ones that aren't like my real ones,
and yet people still fall for them.
I smile and act like everything
is a-okay when I'm around others,
But once I'm alone-
the smile drops away,
the laughter dies.
The tears come,
the pain hits,
and I slowly sink
down onto the floor.
I'm dead to the world.
I'm not living anymore.
Dead to the World
