That's What It's Like 7/2021 What if you couldn't go outside All you have are the four walls where you reside Only places you go are inside your mind And you go there all the time To hide, your fears And conceal, your tears That's what it's like, for me, in here I try to look outside these dirty opaque windows But the reflection just tells me no All I see is years of misery And I wonder if this was my destiny That's what it's like for me in here What if you couldn't do for yourself Almost everything requires somebody's help Well except for maybe getting dressed Even though orange isn't really Sunday's best That's what it's like, for me, in here Everybody waves but acts like zombies It's so sad and it's kind of funny Cause we're all trying to hide the pain If we don't then we all might go insane That's what it's like for me in here
