A Fraud

by Chris   Sep 28, 2008


I'm looked at to for all the answers
Always seem to say the right thing
Making people laugh when they wouldn't
It was like I was an angel you said

You told me I was a great guy
You told me I could do no wrong
You told me I was invincible
You told me I was your savior

But I have just one question
Actually I have a million questions
If I'm this great guy
That you say I have to be

Why do I have the thoughts I do
About suicide, giving up, and turning away
Why do I continue to keep secrets
From those I love and treasure

I honestly don't think I'm ready
To take care of you and protect you
When I can't even do the same for me
Even when I'm perfectly fine

So I know you love me with all your heart
But maybe for your sake it'd be best
If you just stayed away from me
This way I don't drag you down as well
