Killing Thoughts

Growing Thoughts

I used to be happy.

I used to feel free.

But now I am locked in a cage with no key.

I used to smile.

And that smile was real.

But now my face lies,

No one knows how I feel.

Sometimes all I want is for someone to know,

About the monsters in my head.

And the fear that grows.

It grows into my mind, and out of my mouth.

And when I speak, people shout.

They tell me I'm crazy.

They tell me I'm dark.

They say I'm a psycho with no sign of a heart.

But all the things they say,

Those things are not true. 

Because really I'm just a girl who's empty and scared.

Really I'm just someone who deeply cares.

I care about him and I care about you.

I care about them even though I don't want to.

So please don't call me Psycho. 

Please don't call me insane.

Cause underneath I'm just a girl,

With thoughts in her brain.
