Birds
You're sitting in class
You're walking in the sunlight
You're dancing on the floor
You need to be alright
You said you're smile is fake
But how can that be
I've known you my whole life
I've helped you feel happy
So if you're only down
Or you've never been up at all
Is still left to see
But I've been trying to call
If you would just pick up
I swear I would stop
I just need to hear your voice
Even if it's a slop
I was scared like this before
By a different person then
They're getting better I've seen smiles
You don't have to pretend
Speaking of that other time
It fills me with great pride
Her heart turned strong against this flood
and yours will take this in stride
I've got no more words
This is just an illusion
For the anger and the sadness inside
Has boiled me up with confusion
So next to you I stand
Around the issue you've been skirting
And if you listen close
You can hear a hundred birds chirping
