I need validation
For I feel like my words mean nothing
I need my own space
To feel like I can be myself

I don’t know how to say it
Without feeling ungrateful
It scares me to be vulnerable
In fear of being unheard

I care too much
Or maybe not enough
I don’t know anymore
But what if I do

I don’t know how to do this
And you’ve got so much experience
Am I doing this all wrong
Am I doing anything right

How am I supposed to know
When we only talk at night
Our feelings are strong
And our minds aren’t straight

I feel like I only upset you
Or say the wrong thing
I’ll mind my own business
And drive myself insane
