my brain

You say you care,
But do you even know me well?
Do you even know me at all?
You don't even know me at all.

It's like I'm stuck
In a place
And I can't find my way out
If only there were a way
That satisfied my brain
It expects too much.
They say "just try everything,"
But my brain doesn't believe

I can't just think that I am wonderful
I can't just find a way
To be anything more
Anything more than a fool.
