Nervous and unsure, heart thumping in my chest cavity
a souless echoing drum, unbidden uneasy rythm
tell me stories of crystal tips
tell me about flowers in the sky
tell me I neither have to be a bad bitch
but also not that mythical macho guy
Hold my hand and tell me the world’s not a bad place, because I have trouble seeing it
Take me someplace else where I can just exist without suffering it
When I was eight I was getting it, nervous tension
They fed me placebo, peppermints
I crumbled inside and survived, only by hiding from the world outside
I had no idea how to live this life
Missed the point, of enjoying myself
I tried to be how life needed me to be
but for my own sake, I was failing miserably
So glad I’m not in that skin
thrown the cancerous poison in the bin
and seeing life clearly
and I appreciate you so dearly
cos you’re with me
letting me be free
