FYI (Original Song)

The audio sucks. No, that's not your speakers or headphones blowing out, it's the video. There's really nothing I can do about it right now but hopefully I can find somewhere to record this maybe. I hope you enjoy. Also I dropped my acoustic pick into the aether and I have no idea where it is so sorry for that. I'm pretty sure studying guitar picks is the key to figuring out teleportation.

LYRICS

Life's scary when you're taught to be afraid
Life's lonely when you're taught to compare
What you have and what you do to everybody else
You want to do the things you want but you're too scared

When I was young I was never scared to dance
As a kid I was never scared to sing
Not until somebody told me that I should shut up
Not until somebody said I was embarassing
Myself

Now I'm spinning in my head
I need to breathe
All I see is red
I catch myself
My reflection doesn't lie
I see my soul
Behind the glassy eyes

It's 5:00pm and I'm lying in bed again
I haven't moved in maybe a day or so
My whole head is pounding and my stomach is upset
There's things that need attending to over a week ago
It's bad

Now I'm spinning in my head
I need to breathe
All I see is red
I catch myself
My reflection doesn't lie
I see my soul
Behind the glassy eyes

I started writing this about a week ago
But I really can't seem to let go
Of the fear that I won't measure up
Of the fear that I'm not good enough
I've trapped myself inside my brain
I drive myself fucking insane
I feel my end is coming near
Oh God I wish that you were here
With me

I need to see your face
To breathe you in
To remember how you taste
I catch myself
My reflection doesn't lie
I see my soul
Behind the glassy eyes

I'm overwhelmed
I just can't catch a break
I need some help
How much can I take?
The past is gone
But I can't let it go
I'm sorry now
Just thought I'd let you know
