I stand so near

I smile and I fake
Give you what you want to see
Pushing me into isolation
I repair all the damage
Fluff it off my shoulders
Standing tall
With broken bones inside
I drag the damage behind me
And wear it like a glitter
Eyes wide with empty mirrors
Fill me with your view
Words that cling and clang
But mean nothing
I bend myself to fit your need
I turn away when listening
I am not here anyways
I just record your voice
And repeat it back
I am somewhere far beyond the pale
But closer to your heart
Laughing my atrocities
Like I can pray them away
Hopeless in my hope
Faithless in my faith
I stand so near
And breathe
