Twelve-Thirty a.m. But I'm waking up at six and I'm having trouble sleeping because I feel like I can't breathe. I can't breathe. My heart's constricted, my lungs are filled with liquid and I don't care. I guess that I don't care. I don't know what I'm living for, so I don't bother living and I keep feeling alone but I am surrounded, I'm always by someone. They are not the one I want. I love my family and I love my friends and I don't feel loved. But I know that I'm loved. But they don't love me. Because they can't hold me, they can't kiss me like I need them to. But he's too busy standing on the edge of the world waiting. He can't see me when I need him, he won't hear me when I'm screaming I need love. Twelve-Thirty-Three a.m. But I'm thinking of playing hooky and I'll stay in bed a while because I can't breathe. And in my dreams he's holding me. He is seeing me. That's all I really need.
