.....A song? *shrugs*
~~~~~~~~
Just like an actor, I play many roles.
I pile on the clothes and the make-up, hide beneath it all.
People think I'm crazy, others think I'm fun.
Others know that I can become anyone.
Regardless of gender, age, or race,
I can change my body, my face.
Like a chameleon changes to its surroundings,
I'm good at standing out and good at blending.
I'm good at being other people,
but when am I going to be me?
It's hard to act like myself
when I can't find all the pieces of my personality.
I just can't feel better
when I'm not fully together.
I'm not being sincere when it comes to being me.
When I don't really feel it, I can put on a smile.
I can think of something sad and cry for a while.
I can make you think I'm mad when I'm really not,
just by the way I look.
I can use different voices, but none of them are mine.
I can act the part and quote movie lines.
I'm good at looking proud, happy, or sweet.
But, deep inside, I'm afraid of defeat.
I'm good at being other people,
but when am I going to be me?
It's hard to act like myself
when I can't find all the pieces of my personality.
I just can't feel better
when I'm not fully together.
I'm not being sincere when it comes to being me.
The fear I have hides itself well
behind the wall I put up.
Cover the cracks in my foundation
with layers of my own creations.
So afraid to fall.
I'm good at being other people,
but when am I going to be me?
It's hard to act like myself
when I can't find all the pieces of my personality.
I just can't feel better
when I'm not fully together.
I'm not being sincere when it comes to being me.
Successful song? O.O
