Unsolicited Feelings


They told me to talk about it But I still feel the same Do they all just think of me As a mental case? No one wants to hear this So he says, "Take a breath" I go and walk outside to see The stars above But there are so many These stars can't feel what I feel Theyll never feel alone I'm sure it doesn't feel so lonely Because even if the stars die Theyll continue to shine bright For the next hundreds of years We'll still see them No need for me to shed tears But I do They drop and they drop So instead I look down At the sea below But it's so deep My tears make the water grow And these tides continue to flow They move on so easily A deep remimder that I'm still stuck I stare at the movement And the vast water I can't imagine how the ocean Could ever feel lonely Will it ever understand me? If I can't look down And if I can't look up Without being reminded that I'm a total mess up Then where do I look What can I look forward to The past just sucks And the presence Brings no profound present What the hell do I do? I guess I have a future to look forward to Not much I can do I just don't want to feel the same Or punch my problems In someone else's face Cause talking doesn't help And God, being with people hasn't either At the end of the day I'm an empty girl With this empty money An almost dead face And an empty house That I don't feel like I belong in On these car drives back I wonder how it'd be If I was dunked under the sea Or if I rose above the stars Never coming back Then maybe I'd become a little more happy
