i'm so stressed out
i need a shrink
i'm beginning to lose sleep
kept awake by broken dreams
i'm swamped with burdens
i never asked to carry
stress is pushing me to the edge
and it's scary
because i don't trust myself
to keep a sane mind
i don't trust myself to protect my soul
i know myself to well
i know i lack control
i'm crushed under fears
i never asked to feel
i'm bowing to gods
who command me to kneel
i'm forgetting my purpose
i'm forgetting my plan
i'm not trying my hardest
i'm not doing the best i can
i feel so guilty
because i've been messing up a lot lately
and i feel so tired
because i haven't had a break
that's all i need, really
a breathe of fresh air
but i have to stay
because unfortunately,
i care
