Awake days
Today is an awake day
And my mind did pay
Nervous twitches
Girls are bitches
On an awake day
At the brink of a breakdown
Stressing and looking like a clown
But today is an awake day
What can I say
But sorry
What's an awake day? People ask
It's when I can feel
It's when my emotions topple over
And twitches are a constant
But they wouldn't know
And neither would I
If today is not an awake day
Other times I'm quiet
Or utterly manic
No one helps
Adult laugh
And say mood swings are here
They come and go without a care
Because I was not awake
But while I am I come to fight
To speak up about my right
My right to get help
My right to live a life
So while today is an awake day
Yesterday was not.
And my mind did pay
Nervous twitches
Girls are bitches
On an awake day
At the brink of a breakdown
Stressing and looking like a clown
But today is an awake day
What can I say
But sorry
What's an awake day? People ask
It's when I can feel
It's when my emotions topple over
And twitches are a constant
But they wouldn't know
And neither would I
If today is not an awake day
Other times I'm quiet
Or utterly manic
No one helps
Adult laugh
And say mood swings are here
They come and go without a care
Because I was not awake
But while I am I come to fight
To speak up about my right
My right to get help
My right to live a life
So while today is an awake day
Yesterday was not.
