Crazy



Sometimes I get overwhelmed
Can't find my place
Sometimes I can't hold steady
To paste a smile on my face

So I laugh instead
And you look at me
Like I'm crazy

I just laugh instead
While you tell me
There's no place for me


Sometimes I can't see ahead
Don't know my own
Sometimes I just feel that
My chances are all blown

So I laugh instead
And you look at me
Like I'm crazy

I just laugh instead
While you tell me
There's no place for me


And I'm messed up inside
And I feel hurt and pride
And I just want to hide
So I can cry

Without you calling me
Crazy.

The mask we have to wear! YOu aren't crazy, i really identify with this post and I'm not crazy (well the last time i looked anyway). May your false laughter soon turn to real laughter and may you have no need to hide. Thinking of u.

It's so good to be able to laugh, even if you don't feel like it...

And whoever calls you crazy is just plain wrong. You are so real and beautiful and alive and maybe hurting very much sometimes, but why is that crazy?

But I understand you...I still struggle with this a lot, too...

(((hugs)))

I can so identify! My natural reaction is always to laugh or smile when really sometimes I should be crying. I go through this at home all the time when my family asks me why I am laughing or smiling..they always think I have something up my sleeve, when it is just me trying to be happy. Keep smiling. You don't sound crazy at all!

Sometimes in life, we have to laugh or else we'll cry. But of course, people will think we're crazy either way.

You're not crazy at all. You're one of sanest, strongest people I know.
