Originally Fake
May 1, 2011
I can't be what I am not,
I can't do tricks if I'm not taught.
I can't wrestle and win against fate,
I can't face death or pain's great weight.
I can't love if I can not feel,
I can't believe in what's not real.
I can't sing a wordless song,
I can't always choose right over wrong.
I can't lose what I never had,
I can't help sometimes being bad.
I can't lie about something I didn't do,
I can't expect all my wishes to come true.
I can't pretend that I don't brake,
I can't be who you want if I'm not fake.
