Egg shells

I pretend to be this person so friends will stay.

I won’t be who you want me to be.

I’m going to take back my life.

The more you push, the more I pull away.

I’m going to fill this vacancy alone because of you.

I want to let go all the pain.

I’ve been searching all along for somewhere I can belong

Left with negativity, I’m left again on my own

I talk to you out of courtesy

Next I hear you making up this and that.

You think you have everyone fooled with games.

But you don’t, because soon I’ll be gone.

You knew lying would divide us

But you lied anyways, despite no reason why

I don’t want to make you mad but sometimes

You have to get dirty with the people spreading the dirt.

I feel like I walk on eggshells all daylong.

By the end of the week someone still feels stepped on.

Soon it will all end, I’m going away alone.
