Do You Wanna Talk About It?

Do You Wanna Talk About It?
Holi Eightteen

You’ve got something on your mind
I can tell by the look in your eyes
I can tell by your uncomfortable posture
You’re swaying back and forth

You’re not like the others
I see something inside you
Maybe it’s the monster
Or maybe it’s because you’re losing the war

Is your demon taking over
Just like I do?
Is it just another bad day?
Has your world ended completely?

You’ve got something on your mind
I can tell by the look in your eyes
I can tell by your uncomfortable posture
You’re swaying back and forth

Do you wanna talk about it?
Talk about all the secrets balled up inside
Do you wanna talk about it?
Talk about all the scars you created through self-harm?

I’ll never know what’s on your mind
Do you wanna talk about it?
I’ll never know unless you open up and speak up
Do you wanna talk about it?

You’ve got something on your mind
I can tell by the look in your eyes
I can tell by your uncomfortable posture
You’re swaying back and forth

Whoa oh-oh-oh-oh
Do you wanna talk about it all
Whoa oh-oh-oh-oh
Do you wanna talk about it all?

Pull up your sleeves and show me your arms!
Do you wanna talk about it?
Stop skipping meals!
Do you wanna talk about it?

You’ve got something on your mind
I can tell by the look in your eyes
I can tell by your uncomfortable posture
You’re swaying back and forth

Do you wanna talk about it?
Don’t become like me
Do you wanna talk about it?
Find someone who cares, I’ve been through the same hell

You’ve got something on your mind
I can tell by the look in your eyes
I can tell by your uncomfortable poster
You’re swaying back and forth

Do you wanna talk about it?
Do you wanna talk about the abuse?
Do you wanna talk about it?
Do you wanna talk about the self-harm?

Do you wanna talk
Open up your mouth for crying out loud
Stand up in your darkest corner of your mind
It’s time to scream out loud

Do you wanna talk about it?
Do you wanna talk about it?
Do you wanna talk about it?
Tell me all about it!

You’ve got something on your mind
I can tell by the look in your eyes
I can tell by your uncomfortable posture
You’re swaying back and forth

You’ve got something on your mind
I can tell by the look in your eyes
I can tell by your uncomfortable posture
You’re swaying back and forth

Do you wanna talk about it?

This is a song I wrote a long time ago. It was my way of asking people to talk about their problems because I'd listen. Because of all my pain, anger, and sorrow inside that I never let out it created a demon, one who looks just like me, one I write about in many of  my other songs. No one ever wanted to listen to me until I did something stupid and it became to late for me to ever talk about any of it ever again. I no longer talk about what's wrong.
