I'm not completely sure where my feelings reside
It's not exactly like they're hiding insidethey've been floating around in my head for hours
and I'm locked inside a perpetual tower.. of self hate
The comfort comes too late and the expense to be
paid is much too great.
I'll lose my sanity before I'm drowned in vanity
In fact, that might be impossible
reasons like mine that are not so plausible
depend solely on my self hate and my ability to propagate
things like self care
It doesn't really matter and it's not fair
I encourage people to look after themselves
While I put myself away on the highest of shelves
I'm sure that I'll figure it out but everyone's filled with some sort of doubt
While I know the Sun will shine tomorrow
tonight I need some sunlight to borrow.
