When I’m tired I listen to this song

"Everyday"

Everyday is a struggle between what I wanna say
And what I should keep to myself 
And the words that manage to leave my lips 
Don’t hurt me, but they hurt everyone else

And I find myself in need of a pause
I’m not sure why, but I think that it’s because 
Of this desire to be what others want me to be 
Which is nothing close to me

[Chorus:]
But I’ll see better when the smoke clears 
When the smoke clears inside my head 
And I can listen when the screaming doesn’t repeat everything I’ve said 
And all that remains me and who I am at the end of the day 
And this happens everyday

Everyday is a battle between what I wanna know
And what I don’t wanna figure out 
And everything in between in these thoughts of mine
That you know I can’t live with out

And I find myself in need of a pause
I’m not sure why, but I think that it’s because 
Of this desire to be what others want me to be 
Which is nothing close to me

[Chorus]

Being in our 20s didn’t turn out to be all that they said it would be, huh? Wait till you’re in your 20s, they said. Things will get better, they said! It won’t hurt so bad, you’ll be in control, they said! Somebody lied.

Glad you’re back, used to like reading your entries. I also find it weird that I’ve had this thing since I was a teenager! Rarely write anymore, but still. Where are you off to?
