I don't know why,
and I don't know how....
All I know is I will not cry,
I'll just sit down...
Sometimes it's bad,
others it's better;
do I look sad?
Do I look bitter?
Stop watching me!
Stop staring like you care!
Not if you don't see!
Me standing there!
I don't care about your excuse,
save it till I care!
I'm cutting loose!
Stop me if you dare!
Sometimes I'm so angry,
and others I'm scared....
Stop the words that you're saying;
stop the them from being aired.
I can do it on my own!
I can handle it by myself!
I've done it since I've grown!
I can take care of my health!
I've done it before!
I can do it again!
Hurting to the core,
barely able to stand!
Did I get dealt a bad hand?
Or draw the short straw?
Am I to fall or stand?
My voice to be raw?
Cut me a break!
Give me some slack!
Heal this ache!
I dont want it back!
I'm holding it together,
and holding back the tears.
I'm beaten and wethered;
I'm pushing back the fears.
Leave me alone!
I don't need your help!
Hurts like a stone?
Did it leave a welp?
