You Don't Wanna Be Me

You Don't Wanna Be Me

Dark, cool, and edgy, I am.
But in a constant state of misery
with little hope,
little ambition,
little everything.

You don't wanna be me,
living in the house of the dead.
You don't wanna be me,
always being tormented by monsters.
You don't wanna be me,
staying up late at night,
barely being able to sleep.
You don't wanna be me,
always wondering why
My life can't be normal.
You don't wanna be me,
deeply deprived of love,
feeling it in my skin,
the intense shakiness.
You don't wanna be me,
feeling it in your skin,
all the rage I feel
from having to stay silent for so long,
for not having a voice

You don't wanna be me,
being rejected by a troubled man
Who I felt understood me most.
