Don’t try to comfort me and tell me that it’ll all be okay
Give me the one thing that I want
Give me my sadness
Don’t give me hope and dreams
I know it won’t come true
Just leave me in this dark
Don’t give me your convictions
Don’t tell me I’m strong
Don’t tell me not to give up hope
Because this is my life and my journey
I’m falling faster and faster, and my fingers can’t write as quickly as the
words flow
I notice my shortcomings in everything that I do now
This and that, it drives me out of my mind
I see people that are better than me all over the place
I want to succeed but I can’t
Don’t tell me that I’m good at something
Don’t tell me not to compare myself to others
Where is the thing that I’m the best at
And I’ll always compare myself, that’s how I am
My mom cries over me
Why am I her burden
I want to crawl into a hole
So that she won’t cry anymore
I need more help than you can give me
You’ll never understand
But it’s okay, I don’t expect you to
Don’t tell me I can make it.
