Just trying to find myself in the chaos
All I want is answers "Learned helplessness"? Get the **** out of here Do you see my scars? Don't you know it runs So, so much deeper than that? Do you get off on Telling me it's all in my head? I trusted you You're making me sick, Sicker with every move you make I try so **** hard But nothing is good enough In your eyes I am weak In mine I try so ******* hard But all you see are my failures You don't hear me You don't understand me As I scream into the void Alone

Overwhelmed
The ambivalence follows me As I vacillate between yes and no You asked me a question I just didn’t know The answer evades me Because the ambivalence follows me As I vacillate between laughing and crying I just don’t know what you meant What the hell were you asking? Understanding evades me You see, the ambivalence follows me As vacillate between living and dying I just can’t decide Is it you I would rather be hurting? The point of fighting evades me…

Ambivalence
Look at me Do you see me? No you don’t I’m always the heroine And never the saved Heavy is the crown But I still make you laugh Doing a silly little dance And all I am is the jester And never the empress Hey, look over there Now you see me Oh, now you don’t I’m always serving up a trick And never, never the truth

The Jester
It’s OK I’m fine No, I’m not crying I’m sorry How are you doing? I love myself I don’t care These are some of the lies I let pass over my lips I tell them to you I tell them to my friends You know what, I also tell it to myself It’s not OK I’m not fine My eyes are crying a river I’m not ******* sorry I don’t care how you are doing I despise myself I care way too ******* much… Please just see me for me. Just once, I wish I was seen for me.

Lies
Standing on the edge Looking down at the sea Step away, one, two, three steps I can’t do it Sitting on the bed Blade glistening in my hand The quick slice, white mark left behind And then fills with dark red blood The friends we made along the way Became the enemies we fight at night The memories, opening myself And then you ******* disappeared The one that stayed Shouldn’t have stayed… But he is here And I am holding on to threads better left to fray
