The Real Me.

[The Batman]

I'm tired but I can't sleep
I'm hungry but I can't eat
I'm quiet on the outside but I'm screaming deep within
I try to fight back the tears but they just won't stop slippin
I may put on a smile but really I'm dieing inside
I may turn you away but really I'm just trying to hide
I may say no but I'm crying out for someone to help me
I may try my best to cover it but if you look in my eye's you'll see
I need a way out and I no longer want to stay
I want to spread my wings and just fly away
I'm tired on the outside and I'm also tired on the in
I just want this to be over and for all of this to end
I can't take it no more and I just want to flee
But why am I still here when I'm so longing to break free

I like it. It would be good as a semi-rappish free verse!
