forever

Folder: 
inside

if i say something too serious,

just know my mind is delirious.

i have been vacant for years.

don't bother with tears.

there are other things on my mind

and i can't seem to find the time

to relish what's real.

taught myself not to feel.

taught myself when i was nine.

i was not doing well. no, i was not doing fine.

now i'm living my life in a certain way.

i think of the times that you used to say,

that i wasn't ready or i wasn't trying.

you didn't realize that inside i was dying,

now i'm doing well. i'm coming out of my shell.

yes i'm back. and im ready to kill

so step back, baby, this isn't a drill.

i am back, now. better than ever.

you're thinking of now, i'm thinking forever.
