Don't tell me you are going through stuff
That's why you don't talk much
Don't tell me it's been ******* you
When you make everything seem fine

Don't tell me that we fell off because
I didn't want to take anymore
Don't tell me that **** isn't about me
When it could be taken that way

Don't try to gaslight me into thinking
That I'm the problem, that it's your
Problems that are what matters
And I'm the one that pushed you away

When I struggle, when I cry when I'm
Going through **** and my **** ups
My circle knows about it
My circle talks to me

I reach out and say i need a line before
I sink beneath the waves coming up to
The chin as I struggle to breath

My circle stands around me and lifts me up so I'm not falling
My circle is small and close once I realized that not everyone cares

My circle knows everything about me

So don't gaslight me saying I'm the problem

When you aren't in the circle and don't want me there
