Up To Your Standards by Hidden Sadness
On the outside it's all just fine
My deadness inside is hidden in mind
Life flew by to slow for me
Being pushed to live up to the family tree
Forced to be who you wanted me too
Obeying not to pull apart your loves glue
Falling fast, rising slow
All of this just goes to show
Life is gone and death is near
And when it comes I will not fear
For angels will come for me
And they will set me free
Life's been long
And loves been hard
I finally let down my guard
In you I trust with my whole life
Before you hurt me you better think twice
I'm here now slipping through
Holding up what she wishes was true
I may not live up to her hope
But in my life...it's spent trying to cope
