States of Mind

Shut up brain.

Get out of my head

I wanna give up so bad but at the same time I don't

I wanna prove everyone that ever said something bad about me wrong

I wanna prove that I am something

I'm tired of hating myself

I'm tired of worrying

The pain follows me

She follows me everywhere in everything

Dressed in red

At times we are friends

But our relationship is bitter

I drink her away sometimes

But she always returns... stronger

I can't control it

It lives inside my head it consumes me

It is me

Twisted versions

They are out for blood

My blood

They seek only me.
