Does it make a difference?
by: FoxXy

Why arent you happy?
You should be
Dont tell me what to do
I should be happy, smiling
But thats not who ive become
Everything seems perfect but
Underneath the crystal covering
lurks the dissatisfied, disappointed, disillusioned, delierium
That i believe to be my life

Does it really make a difference
If im happy, if i smile?
I worked really hard all my life
To actually get this far
And though i cannot see it
I make you think you do
I paint the face and act the role
That no one can see through
And yet secretly i wonder
If this is how its supposed to be
Everyone else being happy
And me living this secrecy.
Am i happy for my actions
Am i proud of what i am
Do i want to make the assumption
That ive done the best i can?
Do you live for others ...
pretending to be what they want
Or do you live for yourself
And stop putting up those fronts?
