In Private

I try to be
what you see
in my
Misery
Pretending
to be
Someone else
just to be
with what I see

I'm fucking Myself
and I ain't happy
that me and myself
have become
Comfortably Numb

A routine of repetitive
mind numbing
soul destroying
Smiles
Where feelings
hardly Ever reach
our Eyes
Feelings
that we hide


Chained
to our fears

As we
Separately
Privately
Bow Our Head

And Cry
