Pouring through these wasted words
I\u2019m not strong enough to face this
I don\u2019t know that I\u2019ll ever be
It\u2019s all too much
Reliving all these feelings
I\u2019m drowning in the waves
I can feel them choking me
pulling me back under
for all the good it ever did
to let the world see what I thought
probably my greatest mistake
showing the depths of what I think and feel
and no one cares
They\u2019re just words
words that meant so much to me
and nothing to the ones that read them
well now I read them
I let them overtake me
and I can\u2019t find my way out
Pull me under
