but you said it without thinking, saying the first thing that came to mind.
No matter how much everything's changed,

Just because I'm in a bad mood, glaring and frowning
Rock music blasting, I just don't want to talk,
but even though I'm not saying anything
and I'm keeping to myself, I'm still getting told off

See, things like this make me want to cause serious harm to myself
Consequences be damned.
Things like this is the reason why I sit in my room
crying my eyes out, my hands trembling
as I try and write all my emotions out.
