As Scared As A Rabbit

on the outside i look happy as can be
i hop around with the looks of grace and beauty
i seem so small and cute a furball is what i am
on your side you see a happy being

but deep inside i think like this
i hide deep in my hole not willing to come out
i hide from the other creatures and put on a show

im just a small creature that has nothing to protect itself
sure i may smile on the outside and look happy
but on the inside im dying

so the next time you see a rabbit like me
realize they put up a front and we are not happy

The Demons Inside Me

i soar through the sky
as happy as a man
can possibly be

a few years have passed
i walk through the night

i wait to die
wait till the day i can fly
i take a sip of this
memory eraser

nothing i hate more
then songs about
happy endings

my life will not end happy
