I'm poor but I'm kind
I'm sane but I'm overwhelmed
I'm lost but I'm hopeful
I feel drunk but I'm sober
I'm young but I'm not dumb
I'm tired but I'm working
I care but I'm restless
I'm here but I'm really gone
I'm wrong and I'm sorry
I just haven't got this all figured out quite yet because
I'm free but I'm bound
I'm green but I'm wise
I'm hard but I'm friendly
I'm sad but I'm laughing
I'm brave but I'm terrified
I'm sick but I'm healthy
I'm damaged but I'm not broken
I'm silly but I'm serious
I'm falling apart but I'm still in one piece
I am just a walking contradiction...
