I have an illness.
A disease inside my head.
It makes it hard to connect with other human beings.
If I could get in a fist fight with my brain
I'd fucking kill it.
I'd snuff out its existence with my own hands.
God, I get so tired of feeling battered, raw, and bloody
When on the surface I look fine.
Life is fucking terrible,
And when you're sick it's unbearable.
Nothing's quite as simple as it seems to be.
I'm scared to death of people.
Cause people just don't get it.
It's easier to forget than to reach out.
I feel much more lonely
Around people who claim to know me.
The only ones who know me live in my skull.
God, I get so tired of feeling fragmented and broken
When on the outside I look fine.
Life is fucking terrible
And when you're sick it's unbearable.
Nothing's quite as simple as it seems to be.
