Nobody Cares


I hurt so bad, it's getting hard to breathe How I feel inside, well you wouldn't believe Thanks for making me cry, what I total waste of makeup This nightmare feels so real, come on Maddie, wake up I can feel it; another shitty, agonizing year The only think holding me back is my fear God, I just really want to die No more tears to cry, never a need to lie Finally find the right guy, confident and never shy That's what I expect in life, shit I must be high I truly didn't want to spend the entire night crying I wasn't lying when I told you that I've been trying Everybody has a chapter that they won't read aloud All I wanted to do was make my parents proud I just want people to hear my poems, but they don't give a fuck I guess I should know better, maybe my poems just suck. This is how I feel, I'm just trying to keep it real.
