As small as an Ant
As empty as Air
All I hear is "You can't"
And all you do is stare

They Tell me to be Myself
To stop following the crowd
But what you see
It just Isn't me

I try to be like you
In every single way
But there's nothing I can do
To even please you

"How are you" You ask
I'm acting happy of course
But really it's a mask

You yell and scream
But so do I
You scream cuz your mad
But I scream because you're mean

A week goes by
No signs of anger
But I mess up
I say I've had enough

I scream "I want to leave!"
And you get mad
Which makes me sad
I can't please you

Do you want me to stay
Or should I go
But you can't choose
You make me want to go
But you guilt me to stay

Eventually we kiss and makeup
I say I'm sorry and its my fault
And you said "I'm glad you realise"
And my heart falls to a halt

I want to die
Don't do this to me
Just let me cry
Please let me die.
