My Misread compass

my misread compass -harley ginsberg obsessing over what I wanna do making decisions for me and solving my problems too why can't you just leave me alone I need a thinking place and some time of my own need tons of space away from you sick of being trapped in your zone feel possessed by your power too controlling for me I'm just a broken hearted soul keep taking advantage of the tears in my eyes rolling down my cheeks as I'm screaming and running I just want some peace it's my own fucked up life don't want you living in it keep blowing out the flames of the candles I lit and when I'm finally happy you wanna know what you do? you destroy it like a tornado pretending you had no clue of the smiles on my face the glow in my eyes but it comes as no surprise people say you mean well but I know the truth you planted yourself in me from each toe to every tooth and you use my weakness to put yourself on a high but I'm done with the sorrys and every single lie I know better now then to sit and watch it happen I know not to give you any satisfaction you take it all from me and leave me with nothing you break my heart at the push of a button and as I'm trying to push away all the pain it's always gonna be the same and as blood trickles down my arm and through each vein I'm trying not to go insane cause you're stuck on my mind for all the wrong reasons leaves are in my path falling for those changing seasons wishing you would change too and back away from me and my old life and the way I was living I'm done with never getting and always giving I need love in return to mend my broken heart but only thing you sending my way is dart after dart they go through me like air but get caught in my lungs now I'm choking on lyrics that can't even be sung I want to forgive you believe me I do but how can I let go of this when you're the only direction I knew I'll be lost on my own I'm so used to being guided by you but it's on the wrong path and I'll figure out what to do so goodbye forever to my misread compass I'm hopping in my own lane I'll be okay I promise
