(2014)
When the emotion comes up It feels like heartburn Like acid Clenching my throat My ears go watery
I told everyone About you The ugly beast Inside of me You can’t hide
I crave stability Neither wandering spirit Nor home-body Yes I’d love to travel But the foundation
Desperate for his attention Knowing it will drive him away Jealous of a game - how lame Choking self-esteem where I lay Desperate for his affection
It’s not pretty When I cry People get almost as embarrassed as I
I can feel it coming Decisions I can’t make Brain starts to freeze Fingers won’t work Sick of this disease
How can I write how I feel When what I feel is nothing? How can I tell you what I need, What is wrong? When what is wrong
When I think of my mom I think of malt o meal muffins When I think of my dad Memories of a child Chasing us around the circle
Are you ever tired Of just being you? Did you ever Want to be Someone new?
I would never choose To eat a granola bar Or peanut butter crackers Though I eat them All of the time
We Are me and you Together Two hearts Two minds
I do not enjoy roller coasters I am not chicken But they say You just have to try it! So I do
I had it all In my head And then I said Words I do not know which ones
The teenage rebels All fall in line Be they hippies Goths, rockers or skaters Moving from one mould
Que te cuentan un chiste Las palabras se traducen Pero el humor no se puede Por si no lo entiendes Ríete
