Is it bad that I like someone not single for 7 months?
Is it sad I let go the boy who sweetly held me in his arms?
I find it funny I mess up everything to stumble upon my path
But I warned them
Oh I warned them
They'd soon suffer my wrath.
But I want the boy
Who holds his girl.
Seeing them together makes me curl
Into a ball where I shall hide
The tears I shed
The ones I cried.
Part of me screaming let them be!
The other pleading, please want me...
I want him to hold me
As he does her.
I had no warning for the feeling's that'd occur.
Wet streaks overflowing
Lull me to sleep
Will tomorrow be new?
Different?
I do not think.
Because my thoughts I carry with me.
They don't just fade away.
They make me go insane.
I would kill them
If I may.
Why can't my mind go silent?
I need a simple switch
One that'll fix
One that'll kick
One that'll unhitch this bitch inside my brain.
The one that makes me go insane.
I can't control these thoughts
These feelings.
I will not hope for a time of healing.
Listen far
Listen near
What I'm about to say
Won't affect your day
But what no one knows is that I'm NOT OKAY!
I'm an attention seeker
No doubt I'll hear it.
I'll believe it
Once they can clear IT.
IT being my brain
The boys all the same.
IT being school
Oh so cruel.
IT being emotion
I'm such a fool.
IT being home
IT being here
The beach here I come
No I do not fear.
Just take me away
From this place
From this pain.
If I talk about it more
Well ya know
I'll go insane.
Sanity is for the fakes
The ones who cake their face
Not with makeup
But with smiles
Just so people will stay a while.
Bullshit I say.
Bullshit is this world.
For all I've left to say
I want the boy who has the girl.
It Shoulda Been Me
is a song by Gladys Knight - oldie: "Wait, wait, stop the wedding...you just marryin; her for spite. If she knew the inside story, she'd tell you what you doin' just ain't right." or The Temps: "I told him that a girl by the name of Pearl was lookin' for him. When you turned around he was nowhere to be found, so here I am..." a great theme - It shoulda been me, aughta be me. Hope reigns :D
