Breaking Free
I’m so sick of this feeling
This feeling of being alone
So sick of feeling transparent
Abandoned, deserted and on my own.
I’m so sick of the cruelty
The indifferent stares
So sick of being different
Why is it that no one cares?
I’m so sick of trying this hard
Trying to fit in
So sick of not being myself
And being just like, them.
I’m so sick of fighting with myself
A battle within
So sick of seeing me as an enemy
And letting that enemy win.
I’m so sick of hurting
Hurting myself for someone to notice
So sick of striving to be perfect
Why can’t I see that it’s all no use?
I’m so sick of being a monster
A living, breathing fantasy
So sick of my own demons
But they breathe supremacy.
I’m so sick of being afraid
Scared of my own shadows
So sick of being paranoid
Fearful of even closing my eyes
I’m so sick of being tired
Emotionally and physically tired
So sick of being so far way
Where nothing seems to be in reach
I’m so sick of it all
Which is why I’m breaking free
So very sick of it all
Which is why I’m being me.
