So I've been having these aches
Ones that hit on the heart
And off to the mind

I've been closed up in this room for a while now
I'm afraid of facing the world
Frightened of getting hurt
Because the last time I went out there
Things didn't go according to plan
So that's why I'm here again

There's this annoying, full of hope voice inside me
That keeps telling me I'm going to be okay
Well its too late
I've already been robbed of my happiness
My shine has been taken away
And now I'm alone in the dark
I'm stuck
In this four-cornerd room
Where me myself and I discuss our problems
And I hate it

I'm tired of being isolated so much
I just wanna be happy again
I wanna smile
And mean each and every word that flows from my lips

I'm tired of always feeling exasperated
Everything all complicated and aggravating
I just need a break from all of this
I'm tired of being drained by life's instabilities
Insecurities always taking over my mind
