To that friend:
Now that I've told you, all I can see
Is the way you must be looking at meEven if that's not what's on your mind
It must be somewhere, creeping insideBecause whenever I see you now
I drift back to how I told youFor me the pressure is constantly there.
So it's an alien thought to perceive it notConstantly present in your mind now too;
At least when you see me.It consumes me, this beast, thriving internally
On how I struggle through the dayI've tried to cage it, lock it away
But my barriers never holdFor your sake, I hope your bars are steel
And this never troubles you soBut it cant and it wont
At least not like its done to meBut thanks for bearing this weight
Only now i think, you've been placed on my back as well
