It feels like this. When you're sinking further into the ocean And all you can see is the sharks and the snakes And you can only move with the shaking of finger tips All the regret and could habe beens, The should habe beens al wish I could be younger Drags you further down Until you're sea level of the floor The coral and seaweed wraps you up. Every scream of a name or two or three escapes And travels to the surface to even Being ignored by the seagulls Or you're alone, Soaking wet in your room Can't even look at a mirror Because every inch of you screams Liability Putting listings out for guys that aren't it but Are a bigger picture of it all But wanting to put a hit out For your ownself Make it easy, messy free. A bullet to the head, Three months to tell all them you tried. Because you did. You tried being kind enough, Skinny and perfect enough. You tried until it really mattered. And you let yourself go. You break and bend and you wish You'd ******* **** To try again
