Perfect

Take a deep breath, just count to ten
Breathe, just relax...you'll be ready then

Don't get frustrated, it's not worth your while
just suck it in, put on a smile

Hold those emotions under your skin
Keep them in there, lock them within

Don't even show them your weak side
Just show you are strong...show you are never wrong

Dry all those tears before they even spill
always remember, hurt don't kill

light up your eyes with the false good
Hide all the bad, do as you should

Always remember, you're all alone
Never yell, use a soft tone

If you hide your fears, they won't come true
No one should know them, they should have no clue

Love is a word, not an act
Love you don't deserve and that's a fact

keep all the sh*t to yourself,
it's been that way since you turned 12

you function perfectly, with no mistake
no one knows that it's all fake

so continue child, hide in the shadows...
Just wait in the dark...for the pain that follows...
