Hey it's me , I just want you to know that I'm fine , I'm surviving , I'm coping , I'm me . Hey it's me ... again , I just want you to know nothings changed it's getting better , so no need to worry . Hey it's me ... ugh again , I just want you to know that you can sleep with a smile , I'm soaring high. "hello? You there ! You probably tired now" I'll stop soon , stop bugging you , I know how annoying it can be , bye . Hi it's me , I'm sorry I lied , it's killing me but I lied , I said I was fine but I'm not , I said I was surviving but I don't even know , I said I'm coping but I'm relapsing . It's nighttime you know ? They are back . They are near , they draw closer as the clock ticks ! Their screams worsen , I'm no longer busy , no longer have anything to occupy my mind with , I'm afraid they are here. I lied ! Everything has changed , I'm sorry I know lying is bad , I'll probably do it again, I'm sorry I'm a liar , it's not getting better it's stagnant, it's watching, waiting for me, waiting for the trigger , waiting to pounce . I'm sorry I'm a liar. I lied I'm not soaring high, I'm sinking lower with no expression . It's not your business I know , it's no one's business I know , but it feels like I'm carrying the sorrows of generations , it seems like I'm hearing the cries of my ancestral line ? It feels like the waters of generations fall down my eyes ... sometimes it's painful to cry but i do . Does this make sense ? One girl can't possibly hear this much, she can't possibly see this much , she can't possibly feel this much . So yes I lied , I'm not sorry actually cause it's not your business . I don't know why , I don't know why but it's different this time , it's too calm, it's becoming too quiet . I fear for it's return , I fear for how off-balance I'll be thrown . They keep screaming , I can't shut them up ! Never mind , okay bye now .
