My brain tells me That I am lazy To which I respond I am trying my best Your best isn't good enough It says back It's your best too Is all I can come up with We have to do this I tell my brain, frantic I'm too overwhelmed It replies It will only get worse I plead My brain doesn't respond I lay in my bed My brain shows me Painful images I don't want to see those I cry, begging them to go away We have to do this It says matter of factly I do not respond with words Only sobs

My brain tells me That I am lazy To which I respond I am trying my best Your best isn't good enough It says back It's your best too Is all I can come up with We have to do this I tell my brain, frantic I'm too overwhelmed It replies It will only get worse I plead My brain doesn't respond I lay in my bed My brain shows me Painful images I don't want to see those I cry, begging them to go away We have to do this It says matter of factly I do not respond with words Only sobs
