Stop!

Another day passes, another night clears
And all I’m left is a bowl of fears
So dump it out and start anew 'cause they can’t see you so repressed
You gotta stay strong, you gotta be tough
'Cause they’re all waiting to see your bluff
Brush it off, stop being scared
You gotta keep it all inside
So another day goes by and the tears they cut like knives
Waiting for the pain to end so I can be whole again
And these words won’t make a difference
They’re persistent you know
They’re spilling off of my chest to go, go
So sincere, they came so quick
To the rescue, calls came in
Guilt appeased, I watched them go and let’s move on with our lives
Faces taut, I’m rubbing off
My mood’s a flu, I spread the cough
Let me be, go away
You don’t deserve the pain
So another day goes by and the tears they cut like knives
Waiting for the pain to end so I can be whole again
And these words won’t make a difference
They’re persistent you know
They’re spilling off of my chest to go
Alone is how I feel today
I’m pushing all the ones I love away
I don’t know why I’m so cold
I just want it all to stop
Stop the pressure, stop the pain, stop depression, stop my state
In a few weeks, this will all be in my past
So another day goes by and the tears they cut like knives
Waiting for the pain to end so I can be whole again
And these words won’t make a difference
They’re persistent you know
They’re spilling off of my chest to go, go, go
