Things You Never Want to Hear

You gotta understand it’s been a really hard week, I’m tired of smiling and standing on my feet. Every breath I take I take begrudgingly, forcing air through these gritted teeth. And if I’m being honest I didn’t know what to think, I heard all the words I’m staring at my feet and all I know is that you don’t know what it’s like to be me

And he said, “I’m scared of you.”
And I said, “I’m scared of you too.”
But you locked all the doors and you threw away the key, but don’t lock yourself away from me

There’s things you never want to hear and I guess you’re sick of me too. I’m a sad sorry piece of shit you’ve scraped of your shoe. And I could spend my lifе apologizing for this or refocus my attention on who I’m accountable to. Things got rеal dark and I was icing my fists, drowning in these thoughts of slitting my wrists. When I turned to you looking for some support, you clarified you’re out of patience for this

And he said, “I’m scared for you.”
And I said, “I’m scared for me too.”
But you locked all the doors and you threw away the key, but don’t lock yourself away from me

This reads just like I thought it would
But I skipped over the chapters about you in this book
Someday I’ll write you out and I’ll get sober
Someday you’ll be a memory I’ll glaze over

And he said, “I’m scared of you.”
And I said, “I’m scared of you too.”
But you locked all the doors and you threw away the key, but don’t lock yourself away from me

And then he says, “I’m scared of you.”
And then he says, “I’m scared of you.”
And then he says, “I’m scared of you.”
And if I were him I’d probably be scared too
