I guess my life is slanted
I guess I'm kind of weird
I look a little diagonal
When I glance into the mirror

My heart's a little too large
I say whatever I hear
But as long as you don't trust me
I'll wipe away your tears
slanted, diagonal, mirror, tears,
Lies Cut Short Feb 2014
I guess when I talk
I say too much
I guess when I'm quiet
I don't say enough
Won't you take off your coat
Stay a while
Won't you take of your frown
Replace it with a smile

I guess when I write a word
It has to be sad
I guess when you write a sad word
I feel so bad
I don't want anyone to be
As unhappy as me
I don't want anyone to have to
Deal with pain like me

Your lips are black and blue
They look like the sky
But I know the truth
I see the pain in your eyes

You're beat till you're numb
You're hurt till you're broken
Nothing makes sense
Why is the world so cruel
I don't want you to see the world through my lense
I guess I'm just as hurt as you
Depression, abuse, pain, hurt, black and blue, anxiety,

My breath is just air
It runs through strands of hair
They run out of my head
I'm pretty much dead
I miss my life
I know I can't survive
I'm just living in vain
My heartstings are strained
I need this pain
depression, pain, heartstrings, hair,

— The End —
