You should understand
I don't care what I find inside my mind
Turned my head to my home in time
It wasn't planned
Feeling this incomplete, and all these dirty sheets
Show what I'll be
How much time has passed?
You've been so close to me for eternities
The cracked wall supporting me
We'll both outlast
There's no need to pretend, though you're hell sent
You're with me until the end
But you don't make me brittle, ever since I was little
I've been tryna find my middle through sides of a mind like this
An evolving existence, hard to persist with this resistance
Living off the insistence that I can be fine like this
I'm trying to be better
Tryna fuck with with all the pressure
I won't be the same girl from my childhood
I finally feel like a real person
Even when my mind worsens
I know I can be good
Would you be okay
If you knew all my thoughts, the ups, the flaws?
You don't have to stay, it's your choice
I'll be there always
I'll learn to tread my lines, know when I'm fine
I've got yours if you've got mine
I live my life in fragments, temporary attachments
But I'm sick of detachment, didn't think we'd decline like this
Taking it moment to moment, when I'm my own opponent
I know I can show it to you, I'll be fine like this
I'm trying to be better
Tryna fuck with with all the pressure
I won't be the same girl from my childhood
I finally feel like a real person
Even when my mind worsens
I know I can be good
I know I can be good
