i cut off all my hair today
i'm not sure if it's the sound the scissors make
or the feeling of throwing chunks of hair away
but i feel better

the funk i've been in,
the dark cloud over my head,
the heavy weight making me want to stay in bed
all day
it went away
maybe its the sunshine i haven't seen in so long
or maybe its my heart all of a sudden feeling strong
but i feel better

i stayed up late watching funny shows,
i talked to my mom on the phone,
i forced myself to get out and go,
somewhere, anywhere, just so long as i wasn't
cooped up in here all alone
and, ****, do i feel better
