Anybody

There is no easy way to start this essay

A little breathing would help to see the best way

And you couldn't see it even within an x-ray

Wouldn't believe it if I said it to your face

There's some thoughts I can't erase

They've be bugging me for years on days

I cried tears of shame

Keep repeating all my mistakes

Even thought about giving up on these minutes

And let em go to waste

Can anybody explain

Why do I have to be this way?

Has anybody touched that pain

And could we be the same?

I'm that nobody who takes the blame

Can't get no sleep for days

Has anybody touched that pain?

I kept running away no escaping this pain

It's the end of the road I'm done playing it safe

Focusing on 3 no's instead of a hundred yes's

Had to address the perfectionist, a curse and a blessing

Never thought I would fall this far depths of depression

Askin myself questions unresolved from adolescence

Hiding fears under my mattress hoping they disappear

Though all these years guess that I never learned some lessons

I keep telling myself you gotta stay positive

But I was like this as a kid wore Pringles boxes for mocassins

Have these thoughts then I smoke and I drink

But still can't stop them from getting under my skin

Every blunder I ponder within

Can anybody explain

Why do I have to be this way?

Has anybody touched that pain

And could we be the same?

I'm that nobody who takes the blame

Can't get no sleep for days

Has anybody touched that pain?

I heard these voices calling

Their blood flowing through arteries

Another puzzle to solve finding clues on a fallen leaf

Now everybody's involved I run they follow me

I take off that's when it got scary almost I lost a piece

I wake up somewhere up at the hilltop shaking my dream

Realizing its not exactly reality I see

Bruises and blisters up to my knees

Slept for the next three days straight

Visions still chasing me while I'm awake

Can anybody explain

Why do I have to be this way?

Has anybody touched that pain

And could we be the same?

I'm that nobody who takes the blame

Can't get no sleep for days

Has anybody touched that pain?
