out of character...it's an ACT

I didn’t mean to snap

I didn’t mean to shout

I acted out of character

I didn’t mean to be a monster

I didn’t mean to scare you

I ran out of control

self-control is a tough task

the world expects one to remain calm

even in the heat of the moment

I know I lost my cool

and I’m not proud of it

cos to the world I must not

I’m much better than that

but I’m only human too

I too do lose it at times

bcos of the pressures of the world

it was only an act, not my persona
