There are periods at the end of sentences that call for silence
My whole life seems to be that pause
Because when I wake up I seem to always feel alone
Whether to not even try that day is a simple coin toss
Everyone sees me as being so strong
But the strongest people are just better at hiding it
Because when I look into the mirror I am not pleased
My pride is a gag and I am biting it
When you pour water into a cup
there's a certain extent before it becomes overflow
Allow me to be the silhouette of a porcelain glass
And my unexpressed emotions have no where to go
But it's never been a trend to admit you're scared
Scared that you might turn on yourself
Because sometimes I feel like something takes over
Covering my mouth from crying for help
