Here I am again
bleeding on the pages
pouring out my breakdown
for all the world to see
The world that doesn’t stop
doesn’t even turn and look
until the drama comes
All they want is the spectacle
the sound and fury
They don’t care about the details
unless someone’s getting hurt
Is this what you came for?
Is this raw and real enough?
Do you need to see the wounds up close
to see that they ‘re still fresh?
I’ll pull the scab away for you
to keep you coming back for more
because even through the pain
I’m too afraid to be alone
Alone with my thoughts
failures and expectations
the crushing realizations
still pressing down on me
Come on by
bring your free time and your popcorn
take your front row seat
don’t mind the mess that I’ve become
Just leave me be
I’ll find my way out of my pain
in my own time
though that won’t be as exciting
as watching me hit rock bottom
and find my way further down
