Turn on me

Get angry at me not at them  

They can't handle it- I know I can 

I face vicious words every day 

I just don’t want anyone else to feel my pain 

 

I think I’m ok, for now anyway 

The thing that hurts the most is just the words they say 

I’ll just suffer in silence like I usually do  

And I’ll put my fake smile back on to 

 

People don’t usually realise when their words hurt me 

But I can tell when they hurt others and that's hard to see 

So, I try to help but it’s more like a curse 

Because most of the time it seems to make everything worse 

 

I don’t really mind if you get angry at me 

As long as I have made someone else happy 

You can never tell what's Someone's last straw 

So, if I don’t tell them they could be hurt even more 

 

If you turn on me, I will care 

But to many things leave an emotional tear 

So, I’ll try to do anything to make others happy 

As long as they don’t end up feeling like me

  • Help

    Everyone needs help sometimes 

    But the problem is it’s hard to find 

    And it’s hard to know how much you need it  

    From going insane to just wanting to rage quit 

     

  • In my head

    In my head their voices all get mushed together

    I feel like they're going to keep on asking me questions forever

    My breathing gets faster and my eyes dart around the room

    I just want to leave but I know it’s too soon
