Hold on with cliche

It's really not your fault
that no one cares at all.
And it's really not your fualt
that you can't face this fall.

Treat everyday as the last one,
treat everyday as if you ruled the world.
Don't let them bring you down,
don't let them think that you are so weak.

Keep a smile upon that face,
don't let them see a single trace of unhappiness.
Let the rest just disappear
into the bliss of no return.

You're not the only one
who feels that nothing is in place.
Remember, you are you
and yourself will soon recur.

No one cares to talk about
the things that should be fixed.
Nor do they want to hear
complaints that still exist.

Hold on, though cliche, to this life that you have.
If things don't go your way,
pick a course, choose your paths.

It will work in the end,
if not, then that's okay.
At least you can say you tried
instead of caving in.

Keep a smile upon that face,
don't let them see a single trace of unhappiness.
Just let the rest disappear
into the bliss of no return.

Hit me with the truth, the awful truth

    Truthfully...

    I like the story. It's sad and tugs on my heartstrings. Makes me want to reach out to you. However it has some rythm issues. I'd be happy to help you work them out if you want to but I don't want to work on making suggestions if you don't want to change anything. Let me know if you want help on it.

      Lol, yeah. I see how it doesn't seem to flow very well, but when I hear the actually osng in my head, it works. It's just hard when other people can't hear what you hear or think what you think, ya know?
