Drown

Sometimes the people that really care,
push the wrong way.
Those same people have a different out look on life,
and don’t get everything I say.

They like to try and fix everything about me,
change they way I am.
Swirl me around here and there,
As if I was only ham.

They can’t see things the way I do,
Because I’m different inside,
They may think it is the wrong way,
but they don’t know I died.

I’m not the kind of person,
That is happy about everything in life.
So stop trying to defend me,
And give me back the knife.

I can take care of myself,
I have done so for awhile.
You don’t need to be by my side,
Because it isn’t going on file.

I’m not a charity case you can use,
Maybe I don’t want to be found.
I have been cold and alone for awhile now,
about ready to drown.

Don’t look at me with those sad eyes,
I see what you think when you look to me.
I am not as dumb as I may appear,
Nor am I am ready to be.

You may be able to close your eyes
and forget it all.
But it is easier said than done,
Which is why I go into a ball.

I’m not your charity case you can use and abuse,
Because I understand why I don’t want to be found.
I have been cold and alone for awhile now,
So can’t you just let me drown?
