Feeling is nonexistent

We're persistent when it comes to coexistence

Anything we do ends up being impotent

We're insistent on competence

But inconsistent with pertinence

We exist to please

It's becoming a disease

How much we fear to displease

Harbour unease

I secretly wish to flee

I'm scared of myself

No one wants to help

I can't wait to delve

Into a cloudy ocean with despair and no help

No one's brave enough to explore

I don't know how to swim

Forgive me for not being hardcore

I jump off with a grin

I'm finally free

I can't wait to be me

My mind's a mess

Years or pain, guilt, and stress

My lungs start to burn

Remember when they said "live and learn"

I tried I promise,

I tried to live, I tried to learn

But all I got was anxiety and people's unconcern

Some people scream, some people cry

Some people try, and some people lie.

Some people fly high, all the way up to the sky

And they never come back down

Because in heaven all we do is play around.
