sometimes my voice feels loud and empty
like the things i say mean nothing
and when i get nervous i talk more
so it's just more empty words
more empty empty words
meaningless
most of me doesn't believe it
but just this small part does
it tells me to be quiet
to be small
that my voice is just a call into the void
oblivion.
sometimes i wonder
if my screaming laughter
and loud voice
are just cover-ups for
empty words
