Secret Lives.

*freestyle

He's the quiet one,
working all alone by himself, never saying a word.
He's the silent type.
Introvert, a mysterious aura covers him whole.
What could he be thinking, I wonder.
What could be running through his head,
Is this all that he ever did?

He goes home.
Shedding off every inch of mystery he has shown.
A totally different individual when no one sees,
the once quiet boy we knew Isn't altogether silent.
He gets his powder, starts to shake and take it all inside.
Hunger pangs he cannot take.
He's addicted, and we never knew, never noticed.
We all got our secret lives,
It's all up to us to step out of it.

She's the top chick, top flick.
Beauty, Brains and Heart, oh is there you're asking for?
She makes all the heads turn, she's every teen boy's dream.
The high school sweetheart, the campus track star.
What could she be thinking, I wonder.
What could be running through her head?
Is she really this perfect?

It's Midnight. They're all asleep, all sleeping tight.
But she's not. she's wide awake
and with hunger pangs she can't take.
She sneaked out of her room,
headed towards the basement.
Looking for her fix, she starts to tremble and drink it all up.
Alcohol calms her down, more and more until she drowns.
The perfect lady isn't all that it seems,
She's a drunk and we never knew, never noticed.
We all got our secret lives,
It's all up to us to step out of it.

We all pretend to be okay.
We're living lives different during the day.
We're living all under a big, black shadow,
We all want to be accepted.
We all got our secret lives,
It's all up to us to step out of it.
It's all up to us to step out of it and share it.
