Too Much
People screaming in my ear
 About who I'm suppose to be
 Won't they ever consider 
 That maybe I'm just me?
 Nothing extraordinary
 But perfect in my own way
 Nothing worth mentioning
 But still given the time of day
 In this deep dark world
 I won't ever shine so bright 
 But maybe in some time
 I'll radiate a little light
 It may not be what they expect
 But it'll be all I can handle
 A little happiness
 Burning like a candle
 Like everything, it will slowly fade
 Melting away like snow
 Sinking like a stone
 Deep down below
 Pressure burns a hole in my mind
 Making it harder to fight
 The already existing wars
 I can't figure out what's right
 Do I choose to give in
 And sell myself to something I'm not
 Or do I choose to stand my ground
 A battle that needs to be fought?
