I'm too busy

Wrapped up in my head

I can't see past my mistakes

I'm afraid

I'm too afraid

To tell you the truth

I can't find the words

Stuck in my heart

All my emotions

Stuck in my chest

Can't show, can't tell

even when you ask

I'm fine

yep, I have energy

don't worry about me

I'm good, it's cool

I'm too busy wrapped up in my head

to tell you I'm not

I lie instead

tell you I'm fine

I'm fine enough to ask about you

you don't need to care about me

when you do I feel bad

do I need this?

I'm too busy wrapped up in my head

it tells me I'm wrong

It's such a liar

But then, so am I 

Lies and masks

it's all about that

and I see past

but only when I can't think about it

Freedom when I talk

and don't have to think

but thoughts always come

push to the brink

Help me, my mind has me wrapped in my head

can't escape; tied up

I'll say 'im good' instead

I've tried, you've tried

I

give

up
