I’m never at peace,

And that’s the problem

173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjNZLSvcjkh

The weight on my chest,

It never does ease173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzefEP96QMb

All these voices,

All they say is, “What’s wrong with you? Geez.”

173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY7SEGvElue

All these words

They all feel like a kick in the gut

And they all come with an “I love you, but…”

173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyw6j64pr4s

But what?

“Disappointment.” I hear

“Never trust you again.”

173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4nLgzKEu6y

And they don’t blink when I shed a tear

Tear, tear, tear

All I see are tears

When I look in the mirror

173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8RSQ1hJC5T

I’m never at peace

And that’s the problem
