A song
ianeffff: you're just taking up space.
isadeadkid: speak for yourself
The Facade Slips Away
I'm no longer a conscious optimist
I don't look for much anything in this
I've let my facade slip away
I no longer bear the weight of what they say
Because admitting I am weak might make me stronger
But I really have no will to live much longer, anyway
The face I wore allowed for some good times
I looked happy, but I was really blind
I no longer try to justify myself
It's hopeless to worry about my health
But if it actually did any good I just might
I'd back my words with that old spite, anyway
Since I let it die, I've learned to confront my fears
And people seem to have forgotten I'm still here
You're the only one who's really cared to stay
And watch my facade slip away
