I am a victim of my brain Back and forth, back and forth, back and forth, back and forth, back and forth, back and forth, back and forth, back and forth, back and forth, back and forth it goes. It never stops. Do I play nice to myself, Or is it time for punishment? Choose. Choose, NOW. No, you have to be gentle. NO, you don’t deserve to be forgiven. You hurt everyone. NO. It’s all in your head. NO. It’s not. YES IT IS. NO! Count the number of people I hurt, Tell yourself why you don’t deserve anything. STOP PLEASE STOP… Which voice in my mind will win at the end of the day Is unpredictable. But I need a happy ending to my day, Or at least feel okay Because everyone deserves a happy ending. But do I? NO. Yes I do. No you don’t. FIGHT IT YES YOU DO. You need to feel okay. You are okay. You’re okay. You’re okay. You are okay.
