I’m never at peace,

And that’s the problem

227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG7ejb3kelD

The weight on my chest,

It never does ease227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMuWn5pqgxI

All these voices,

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

227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlFwT2Ycmzl

All these words

They all feel like a kick in the gut

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

227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo1Ss6paCpu

But what?

“Disappointment.” I hear

“Never trust you again.”

227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU3iCNZVTwQ

And they don’t blink when I shed a tear

Tear, tear, tear

All I see are tears

When I look in the mirror

227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzqlOH5v4CF

I’m never at peace

And that’s the problem
