It's dangerous

It's easy
to curl away inside myself
it's dangerous - I blinked away ten years

It's easy
to be mad all the time
it's dangerous - everyone gets fed up

It's easy
to live in a fantasy world
it's dangerous - reality is anything but

It's easy
to just say forget doing it
it's dangerous - that becomes the norm

It's easy
to smile on the outside
it's dangerous - the frown gets deeper on the inside

It's easy
to think about what I want
it's dangerous - it just can't happen

It's easy
to let the tears slip down
it's dangerous - they fall more than rain

It's easy
to talk about what I'm feeling
it's dangerous - they think it's selfish

It's easy
to watch other people happy
it's dangerous - it breaks my heart that little bit more

It's easy
to ramble nonsense
it's dangerous - I do it just so I don't have to keep thinking

It's easy
to get lost in my books
it's dangerous - they will always be there, I won't.

It's easy
to want more for myself
it's dangerous - there are some things you can't control

It's easy
to give advice to those who ask
it's dangerous - that I can't give myself that much

It's easy
to pretend
to care
to shout
to hide
to run
to fall
to wish
to dream
to fly
to want
to love
to be
to share
to try
to learn
to live

it's dangerous - to have the hope to do those things;
