you were right when you asked me is it things that im scared of

because i’m stuck in my head

and i’m scared of your patience

why is it easy to speak

 

and i don’t like showing these

it always hurts worse because it’s my frame of mind

and you don’t know my mind

you can’t feel my mind

i let you in before- 

and 

i’m scared

 

because it’s what i want not what He wants

and i did what they said i would

all i want was 

space
all i want is some normal

 

compensated my whole life

now i’m stuck in my head

but it’s chill 

just like you chill

but 

i’m not

okay?
