Found a good way to pass for fine
Here in the corner of my mind
Simply say yea I’m all right
Maybe underthink instead this time

So I’ve practiced and I’ve tried
To keep the ugly stuff inside
Keep my distance miles wide
And my truths half when I like

So when I said
“I don’t hate myself I guess
I’m just tired and overwhelmed”
At least I’m glad I finally said something I felt

But if there was something i could not say
To unaddress the things we can’t change
These fighting words could use a rеphrase
Present thе past but in a new way

Turns out i was watering the weeds
Hoping to root the good in me
But growths no good with no good seed
I’m here just long enough to leave

So when I said
“I don’t hate myself I guess
I’m just tired and overwhelmed”
At least I’m glad I finally said something I felt
Cause what I meant
It’s not that leaving doesn’t hurt
But you’re the subject of that verb
The better that things go the more im gone
Think that can stay unheard
