Somtimes i feel like a stranger in my family
we're talking but it feels like i'm silent
my words taste so shallow e,pty
i don't want to sit and talk, stay fro a while
i just want to run, get back up stairs
back to hiding, back to writing
i scream to music at the top of my lungs
i love lyrics, colliding and crashing
i never want anything to hold onto
someone get the damn phone
it's taking over my head
Sometimes i think i made it all up
that this is only a story i'm telling myself
that really, i'm another person in an alternate universe
just following along on the edges of normal
can anyone tell i'm strange when they look in my eyes
because if i look in the mirror, i start to see it
it creeps up on me at first, like a hidden shadowy light
but suddenly, spark turns to fire and for a second a start to wonder if maybe i really am beautiful afterall
i need to get my focus together
stop being so stubborn
it's just two more years, two more wasted years
or atlkeast that's what i tell myself when i can't fall asleep
i know i'm indebted to my parents forever
i know i'll probably have to make room for my sister in the nexrt part of my life
but honestly, it genuinely hurts me how different wew seem
how can they not see the world in the terrible way i do?
how can they not see the statues crumbling
how can they see more sky than cloud
it hurts so bad because i can't escape it
reality just is
there's no shaking a life story
there's no waking up, recovering
i wish i could get that thank god i't not real feeling
even just a little
please help me pretend?
never really know a killer from a savior
