I'm trying too hard to forget to just be me.
Forgetting to forget the imagined audience.
Who i wish would understand me,
Yet never know me.
Because i can't bear to show what i don't know.
This is why i discuss trivialities.
This is why i seem so strong.
Because my shell won't be cracked if i make Sure you never find out how to.
Yet i want to open up.
I want to see who i am.
I want to see.
But it terrifies me to think that maybe you love me for what i say and not who i am.
My politics just aren't me;
just another wall between you and i.
The select few who've seen through the facade,
I pushed away in horror.
Afraid of what they knew.
I withheld so much about myself to keep a fucked-up advantage
and now i see i never had anything to gain.
So now there's no more trying to «Just be me»;.
no more hiding behind a language. Just expose myself for what i've been;
a fraud,
cashing in on rhetoric
that i learned to abuse,
what i used to push you away.
That i used to win even though.. every single Time i lost.
Every single time.
