I take my coffee piled with sweetener and syrup because everything about me is bitter bitter bitter 
 The thoughts in my mind to the movement of my toes, I just want to kick that ** 
 God only knows
 Eleven cavities, reason being hereditary
 Bitterness has trampled through my bones, blood, veins 
 Fighting for the day when I let it come out and play 
 Bitter bitter bitter
 Shut it all in till I have nothing left to say 
 Yet everything to say 
With no reason to stay 
 Numbness has gone away leaving an onslaught of shame in its wake 
 If only I didn’t feel the need to stay awake 
Play this lifeless game
 Where my heart always gets in the way

Coffee triggers my anxiety just like you
I take my coffee piled with sweetener and syrup because everything about me is bitter bitter bitter 
 The thoughts in my mind to the movement of my toes, I just want to kick that ** 
 God only knows
 Eleven cavities, reason being hereditary
 Bitterness has trampled through my bones, blood, veins 
 Fighting for the day when I let it come out and play 
 Bitter bitter bitter
 Shut it all in till I have nothing left to say 
 Yet everything to say 
With no reason to stay 
 Numbness has gone away leaving an onslaught of shame in its wake 
 If only I didn’t feel the need to stay awake 
Play this lifeless game
 Where my heart always gets in the way
