everybody thinks i'm o.k.

i can pick up the phone

be the same guy you've ever known

make you laugh and

fill you with amusement

everybody thinks i'm o.k.

as long as i've known this

i've known how to hide it

nobody wants to see it

nobody wants to see me bleed it

make em laugh one time

everybody thinks i'm o.k.

under my skin

a train burns

i stay up late

denying the inevitability of morning

soda pop and cereal

you can't spot this

it's too surreal

everybody thinks i'm o.k.

look into my soulful eyes

my body knows how to lie

i can put up a living front

a mask for my personality

everybody thinks i'm o.k.

[A Soap Mess Stories]

Good write...I could sense lonelieness in these words...

[Lorelei]

I've known this feeling in my life for too long, sometimes I'm sick and tired of feeling it. If I looked into your eyes, they'd tell me the truth of what was really going on inside, because, in all my life, I've found that eyes never lie. The face can contort and confuse, but the eyes are like crystals which hold the secrets: see-through only if you know how to gaze into them...and if you have the courage. Laughter is a good thing. I wish I could make you laugh.
