i can feel myself changing
myself
for him
the way i changed myself
for you.
it's a different type of change,
and i've had so much
taken and warped,
i'm not sure
what's real and what's not.
i lash out, i lash out -
what i put in,
it's what i'm getting out.
lies & fuckups for food,
and i'm eating my feelings.
stable song playing
and i'm in the depths of
my malnutrition
and it's putting my brain in drought -
i can't focus
with this mix up
who's in my mind at night
and who's there in the day.
night&day like the change
that i've made accidentally.
problems that i can console
with eating my fucking feelings.
(a different man took this from me
and i've been wrong ever since -
i lived like you because it worked for you
& i changed myself,
i wanted you to want me (only kinda too).)
