Can't you see I'm trying?

Do you enjoy my crying?
You laugh as you watch me break,
There is too much pressure for me to take .
What the hell am I joking?
Don't you see I'm already broken?

Your yelling brings me tears,

Because you bring out my darkest fears.

All you ever do is criticize,

I am tired of believing all your stupid lies.

Underneath all this stress I'm taking,

Why can't you see that I am shaking?

You may find this shocking,

behind the smile that I am mocking,

I am slowly slipping into the darkness.

Because of you, I am invisible,

This mistake is not reversible.

Be careful when you break your promises,

Like knives, they could cut you.

Lies like a ghost,

that can be seen right through.
