Singing my self loathing

Reposting the poem below in musical form, because I finally found the music to match the angst. Vocals by me.  
  
 
Dark and stormy  
   
I need to be where there is no me    
I want you to go where there is no you    
Where wind rips my hair and waves drown my ears    
Let’s go to the dark and stormy    
   
I’ve got a mind that won’t stop thinking    
I’ve got a body that just wants to sweat    
I’ve got a heart that’s ripe for the breaking
Why haven’t you broken it yet?    
   
I’m a disaster waiting to happen    
I’m your nightmare wrapped in a smile    
High maintenance is miles below me    
You’ll only dare stay for a while    
   
I’ve got a mind that won’t stop thinking    
I’ve got a body that just wants to sweat    
I’ve got a heart that’s ripe for the breaking
Why haven’t you broken it yet?    
   
(Hey! What are you still doing here?)    
   
Stop gazing at me like a saint or an angel   
Your admiration is too much to bear    
Why can’t you hate me the way that I hate me    
I know that I’m dark and stormy    
   
I’ve got a mind that won’t stop thinking    
I’ve got a body that just wants to sweat    
I’ve got a heart that’s ripe for the breaking
Why haven’t you broken it yet?
