Someday I hope to have a honest day.
A day when no one gets hurt by words.
A day when I don't have to pretend to be someone I'm not.
A day when my life is not a battle to help others survive.
Someday my life will be more simple.

An honest day would be nice every once in a while, but I've found so few who could make this happen.
Perhaps they're searching for the people like me who want an honest day.
Just one honest day. Is that too much to ask for?

Someday, I will be more than just me.
Someday, I will be the one who is able to sit back and let others do my work for me.

Someday I hope to have a honest day.
A day when no one gets hurt by words, said by those who are hurting.
A day when I don't have to pretend to be someone I'm not, like a pretty little actress.
A day when my life is not a battle to help others survive and live longer.
Someday my life will be more simple, because the lives of others are easier.
Someday, I'll have an honest day.
