Have you ever wondered how it feels to have someone try to minimize your mental illness?

Well it's like you're living in a horror movie.

It goes like this.

Why don't you say it to me?

Come on and say it to me!

If you think my scars are make believe, say it to my face.

Trust me when I say you'd kill yourself to escape if you faced the monsters I live with everyday.

It doesn't matter because you don't want the truth.

You only want me to pretend it away.

You make me feel like I'm insane when I'm not okay.

Now it's more than I can take.

You think my pain is fake.

So come on and say it to my face!

If you really want me to break tell me to just be happy.

I wear this smile on my face because you left me with razor blades. 

You hate your work of art until you paint it over my pain.

Yet I'm the one faking it!?

You tell me:

Fake a smile

Play the part

Just be happy!

Embrace denial and hide my scars

Just be happy!

But I can't take who I am

So just be happy!

Just be happy!

Just be happy!

The monsters I live with you'd kill yourself to escape.

But I'm the one who's insane!

What's insane is you telling me to "just be happy"! 

That does irreversible damage!

It's a horror movie.

Living my life is just like a horror movie.
