Bored
Of all this noise and all these toys and this empty,
Empty void
I'm bored with rules and regulations
Tired of this home and this cold bed
I'm blinded by these white cracked walls that keep me in
I'm tired of this fear that doesn't let anyone in
I'm bored of this television and laptop
I'm tired of being twenty
Even though when I was a teen I was severely depressed
At least I looked forward to a brighter future
Now all I feel is intense anxiety and fear of leaving the nest
Accidents and crime prevail
And I let that hold me back from setting sail.

Bored, within these four walls
And I can barely breathe with ease
Because fear is constantly closing in on me
Sometimes I think all I need
Is arm that I can trust, to protect me from harm
But let's be realistic
There is no one in this world I can trust
Most hearts have hardened and become masochistic
So my own heart has begun to rust.
