i'm still human.





I no longer feel real.

I'm living in an unfamiliar world full of lies.

Surrounded by beautiful creatures with glued on smiles

And fear in their eyes.


But despite everything I'm still human.

So trace my lies with your fingertips

And tell me you'll always love me...

Because this world never could.


Just take me out of this place I'm in.

This skin is not mine.

But underneath it all, I'm alive.

I'm human.

I am me.

    Stop. You are so amazing. I think I just read this like ten times. I was trying to pick my favorite line from this but there isn't one line that I don't love...
