I'm too lazy to work out
I don't want to sweat
It'll ruin my hair
But I want to be thin
So instead I skip meals
These are just my excuses

Pain rushes towards me
From every possible direction
I can’t take it
It’s all too much
Right before your eyes
I begin to crumble
And still you don’t see
And still you don’t stop

Listening to a love song
With a broken heart
Is torture
My eyes fill
With a ocean of tears
As the lyrics
Bruise my chest
And memories
Scorch through my mind
Why can't I have
The perfection that's in this tune
The perfection of love returned

I spend my time

Silencing voices

Telling me to

Travel a road of destruction

Just think

What if I listened?

Where would I be?

I silence those voices too

Because I might like the options

Days are feeling longer
Nights are getting darker
And I'm still here
Standing in the shade I make in the light of others
Waiting
For my light to join theirs'

Emotional strain 

Causing a physical pain 

Life is but a drain
