"I've Been So"
DiaraRose_M

I've been so hopeless
Thinking there's no other man like him
Thinking I wouldn't love anyone other than him
For hoping maybe I could replace her
For wishing that I could replace her
I've been so hopeless
For letting my world fuelled by him
For letting my guards down for him

I've been so foolish
To think that no one loves me all this time
To think that no one appreciates me from everything I've done
'Cause there's probably one.. two.. or three
And they are the people I always ignore
And they're the people who's always been by my side but I never know
They never said, they always show but I never saw

I've been so pretentious
For forcing myself to be good
For faking myself for the benefits of not hurting anyone
'Cause being me hurts people around me
And it hurts me seeing them hurt because of me
And so here am I
Still questioning why I never felt that genuine happiness
Tho I know the reason why
I'm still denying the truth
All this time i'd never been real
And that's the fact I never accept

I've been so confused
For thinking what the real meaning of being real
When the choices we've got is just to pretend we're fine
When being real is considered different
I've been so confused
If I ever seen a real person in my both eyes
That someone who never hide behind those laugh
'Cause all I see is fake even in front of the mirror
