Do you hear me when I scream
Or do you only hear me when I bleed
I've been thinking about everything lately
Like how I might just be crazy
And how much I do daily
Is there a break for me coming in the near future?
I've gotten really good at sutures
And I shouldn't have to be the butcher
I'm in need of a booster
I can't shake this tired feeling
The world is always screaming
And I just want to be sleeping
I've been smiling
But tears are spilling
Down my cheeks they are dribbling
But everyone just sees me speaking
Do you hear me when I scream
Or do you only hear me when I bleed?
