Never Rests

So, you want me to share with you

All my dirty little truths?

Once I say it

You’ll never forget it

Forever imprinted in your brain

Only to make your face rain

Don’t cry for me

For I don’t even cry for me

There’s a nightmare inside my head

It never rests

Suppressed

But never rests

Even the pills I ingest

Never let me rest

I’m gonna go scream now

For that is how I stay sane

In my little bitty town of Boise

People think they know me

But they don’t really know me

Bipolar screams echo in my head

The same ones I heard in the luny bin

My love that made me crazy

Gone forever

Society thinks they know me

Thinks they can hold me

But I fight back

I fight till all my blood is spilled

I go to school

I go to work

I do nothing of importance

I act on a stage

The stage of life

Say the lines

Say the words they want to hear

My doctor says I’m luny

So, I guess they can say it too

Unworthy of their presence

As if they are not broken too

No

They are more broken then me

If they think I am broken

But they are perfect

Wait till their own self is broken

Then I can laugh too

They don’t own me

No one owns me

I’m almost seventeen

No one owns me

I do what I want

And no one stops me

I hold all the cards

There’s a nightmare inside my head

It never rests

Suppressed

But never rests

Even the pills I ingest

Never let me rest

Despite doctor’s orders

They never let me rest

Suppressed

But never rests
