The Fight Inside

This fight I have inside
I seen plenty of people pass me by
they don't know whats inside
they don't know what I deal with
they don't see the pain
they don't see the effort
they don't see what I hold
all they see is a face
all they see is another person walking by
they don't know since
to them all I'll ever be is another memory.

Should I care if I'm acknowledge?
Should I care about these feelings on the inside?
Jealousy
Sadness
Madness
Anger
Pain
Should they really matter to me?
Should I keep holding on to them?

You don't know
what I fight on the inside.

You don't know
what goes on, on the inside.

You don't know
what's breaking me.

You don't know
what defines me.

You will never know
cause these feelings
I have to deal with on my own.

Asking for help
won't be necessary.

I don't care no more
I don't care no more
I DON'T CARE NO MORE!!

Are the words that I reside
in my head.

But who cares.....right?
I can't show you what goes on inside.
Even if I did
it would be a confusing hell.

It would be a place so dark with
shattered glass
that you would never
want to enter.

I dare you to pass that door....
If you can.

I dare you to try
and understand.

I dare you to try
and see how I'm feeling.

Cause after
the realization of what you see
your going to want to play truths with me.

Test these emotion
bring on the explosions
I'll hold my ground and fight back
cause the memories
the words that have been said
reside in me.

Whats been said has meaning
respect that
test that
mess with that
trash that
slap that
I dare you
just don't think for a minute
I won't fight back!
