Pretender

Everyone says
There's more options than death
How do they think so?
They seem to not see
The pain sticks around
You can hardly breathe
It never goes away
Just gets pushed in the back of the mind
Waiting for the chance
To ruin the smile
A pretender knows how it works
How to fake a whole day through
Hiding everything that hurts
There's no point if they knew
They only let it out
if there's no one to see
Only way they'll be themselves
Is if people let them be
They plan in advance
How to commit suicide
No one seems to notice
What's said with their eyes
A pretender can seem normal
No one sees the truth
A pretender knows what to do
To make sure no one ever knew
