The Other Side of Paradise

I'm insecure and immature
Two hundred pounds of rage
This body is not a temple
My blood boils in this cage

I'm stuck in my adolescent safety net
No longer a young boy
But I don't deserve to be called a "man"

They said that boys don't ever cry
You'll never see tears in my eyes
They said that boys don't ever cry
And so I laugh on sleepless nights

I'm feeling lost in my identity
I hope to be half the man who raised me

But I'm just a kid
Always seeing red
Angry at the world for no good reason at all

Real love hurts more than fake hate

Real love hurts more than heart break
