Okay listen
you know what's been going on lately
you know what's gone wrong
you know why i'm so tired
you know i want to be gone

my lips are dry
my voice is constantly cracking
i have a massive headache
i'm probably dehydrated again
i'm still singing songs with this cracking voice

i now know when i gave up on teamwork
i wonder what brought that about
fourth grade
the year i won something
possibly the only one

in an activity i'm not allowed to do anymore
because i have bad grades
it makes so much sense
taking away the only sport i enjoy
to get me to be productive

you're telling me to stop taking the blows for everyone
what if i can't stop
what if i still care so much that i refuse to let them hurt themselves and others
except for one
he can go **** himself

you don't think you're around enough
but that's not true
if the circumstances don't allow you to be around enough for your standards
that's too bad
you're around enough for mine

you're afraid you're not good enough
even if you're the best person in my life right now
i've said it so much
i figured you'd believe me by now
i guess we have the same problem

you're afraid you'll get too attached
and then lose me
that one i can't argue with
you might
i'm lost anyway

you're sick
i'm sick in the harder to fix way
i'm still afraid to look in the mirror
but if i don't my hair will look worse
and we both know how much i hate my hair already
much digression
