These Voices
Oh they won’t go away
they are always there
spinning me in circles
pounding at the wall of my brain
what did i do
You are not good enough
You will never be good enough
You are not skinny enough
You are too boring
over and over they chant
those cruel words
I can’t get away
I put up a good fight
It is time to accept what is true
I am not good enough
I will never be good enough
I am not skinny enough
I am too boring
They were right all along
how could i not see
I do not deserve this life
The voices have given me a way
A way to escape
I will disappear forever
Never to bother again
they are always there
spinning me in circles
pounding at the wall of my brain
what did i do
You are not good enough
You will never be good enough
You are not skinny enough
You are too boring
over and over they chant
those cruel words
I can’t get away
I put up a good fight
It is time to accept what is true
I am not good enough
I will never be good enough
I am not skinny enough
I am too boring
They were right all along
how could i not see
I do not deserve this life
The voices have given me a way
A way to escape
I will disappear forever
Never to bother again
