I'm Not Perfect

I've been taught not to lie
I was a scout full of pride
But I can't share none of what I'm feeling now
And you resent me
But it's the lies that keeps you around
I'm not perfect, I'm just a fake
But still you ask for more than I can act
And it just drains me out
Then you say to drop my armor and be myself
You've been tired of my defenses
Stupid reasons
Deceiving you and your senses
But I'm protecting you from this hell
I'm not perfect, I'm just a fake
But still you ask for more than I can act
And it just drains me out
Stop lying Stop faking
You're nothing You're just a waste of time
For 9 months I've been pregnant with lies
And soon she'll be screaming the screams,
Screaming I've been trying to hide them from you
With illusions
Truth can bring so much useless, worthless,
unconvincing pain

Here comes the pain
But still you ask for more than I can act
And I can't cope with it
