"Bottle Up Your Feelings"

"Don't keep things bottled up."

"Telling someone what's wrong is better."

Says who?

Why should I bother?

 

Telling someone what's wrong is better

Only if you want to be made fun of.

Why should I bother

If I'm only going to be judged.

 

Only if you want to be made fun of

Should you talk about your thoughts and feelings.

If I'm only going to be judged

I'll keep my mouth shut.

 

Should you talk about your thoughts and feelings

When no one really cares?

I'll keep my mouth shut

Until people stop being judgmental.
