Uncertainty drips from every pore I can’t count how many times I’ve cried I don’t know what I’m crying for I don’t know how many times they’ve lied “You can’t trust anyone,” he said After so long, the words awake in my mind Fear and anxiety crawl into my bed To keep me awake until the sun goes blind No one helps, no one fights it anymore Mental illness is the hottest new trend Everything is rushing towards the open door So once again I can’t tell who is my friend I’m not yet ready to accept defeat Yet the suffocating tension only grows Maybe it’s over, maybe I’m already beat Maybe I should just let go Maybe I should let them drift Let myself sink into the unknown Maybe this is their final gift To someone undeserving of their throne
