I’ve been trying not to cry in my car anymore
Cuz it’s dangerous for other cars on the road
And it’s not fair to them
But the sound of metal collapsing is tempting
If I were in the hospital for weeks, no one would expect anything from me
And maybe I could get the help that I need
Just another stupid thought for the day
And I know that it’ll go away
If I shove it down far enough
Cuz I’ve had to prove that I’m so tough
My whole life I’ve traded flowers for thorns
Just hoping that someone was keeping score
And maybe they could stick around and help me plant seeds in the ground
I don’t know why I’m so terrified of life
Just another stupid thought for the day
And I think that it’ll be ok
If I can keep it all inside
Cuz I’ve learned it’s easier to hide
I try to rewrite the wires of my brain but nothing seems to change
It’s the same old refrain
Just another small step for the day
Cuz I wanna start to feel okay
No more hiding from the ones that I love
I just have to trust that I’m enough
