Why Me?
Anxiety keeps me in a bubble
I could really never stay out of trouble
Never did anything wrong but yet I'm the devil
According to my family I'm such a rebel
Suck up all my feelings tuck em in my pocket like a pebble
If my emotions are to blame then I'm not surprised
thought I had it under control but maybe I lied
I fell into my own doom
Locked up in my own room
I saw it coming but I didn't expect it
I felt the feelings but I couldn't project it
Now I'm stuck in the dark forced to reflect it
But my actions are just fractions from the many parts of me that were blackened
Gotta find the freedom I'm lacking
All this procrastination got me slacking
So much stress that it's so nerve wracking
Been hiding so much stuff I feel like I'm quarterbacking
I'm sidetracking, this stuff is so distracting
My every breathe is seen as a weapon
Why won't someone step in?
Maybe I'm destructive, unconstructive
Need someone to see me, not what they see
I need someone to be me, I'm going crazy
My therapist said we'll see, but will we?
Come on I mean really?
It's killing me
I won't become her, not my mother, anyone other
Every hour is another, look at the clock and continue to suffer
Keep fighting I feel like I'm getting tougher
But it's not enough, I'm not enough
Yeah I got it rough, I Won't lie
Some days I wake up begging I won't die
I have to shut myself down and comply
But I gotta try, my life isn't just one hell of a story
It's my glory
