True Colours

I was talking to C the other day and came to a conclusion about myself. My behaviour changes accordingly to my surroundings. I don't try to fit in or anything, I just change.

It made me wonder.

Everybody lives behind a mask. Everybody has their secrets that they don't want others to know about. This way of thinking may seem paranoid, but let's be honest: it's the truth. And the reason why people shove away this way of thinking is because they can't admit to themselves that they're exactly the same.

I remember all the posts from way back last year when I'd be this depressed kid who'd hide her tears behind a smile. Most people would put it off as teen drama and stuff, but I think that I wasn't the only one who's reality actually looked like that.

And, after all, even if it's not always at the same level, all of us are in a way pretentious. Some of us just seem to do it better than others.
