Stuck Stuck Stuck Stuck
I just want to get out of my brain and hide under
the covers,
away from the monsters.

Choices And Burdens
And then I realize I don’t want to do it
I don’t want to die
But I don’t want to continue dying
Just to live
I don’t want to die
But I don’t want to continue dying
Just to live

I Wish
Someday I want to wake up
Invisible
Or maybe invincible
Either would be nice

It Is What It Is
I hate being on this rollercoaster
I don’t like the drops
I don’t like the climbing
Why can’t I just stay at standstill?
I don’t like the drops
I don’t like the climbing
Why can’t I just stay at standstill?

Today is hard
That’s just how it is.

Can’t Even Clean My Room
I felt so bright
Why don’t I feel bright anymore?
Where has that light gone?
please give it back

Was It Not Permanent?
All I do is sleep
And eat junk food
And watch tv in bed
And go to school
And go back to bed
I don’t understand
Why isn’t anything sticking?
I used super glue
And eat junk food
And watch tv in bed
And go to school
And go back to bed
I don’t understand
Why isn’t anything sticking?
I used super glue

cardigan
mascara stains
on woven sleeves
clenched by anguished fingers
salty drip
from trembling lips
my broken little visitor
on woven sleeves
clenched by anguished fingers
salty drip
from trembling lips
