stop asking me if im alright
when you know im not alright
you should know better than that
and the fact that you do
and that doesn't occur to you
makes me feel even worse

who the fuck are you
and where is the person i knew
is this what i can expect for the future
a lifetime of disappointments
and goodbyes
growing bitter by the hour
hating every single smile i see

you make your calls from the brighter side of the street
try a day in my shoes 
try an hour in my worst day
life lessons from degenerate swine
shitting on the little guy
to make yourself feel better

you jump from lap to lap
so that you don't have to figure out
how to do a goddamn thing for yourself
someone will always be around to take care of you
and you self inflict in private because of this fact
cut yourself when the doors are closed
when the layers are off
and the horror is real
and the mirror reflects the shit that you really are
you'll never pick away the bad in you
cause thats all there is left

and at the peak of it all
is the fact that destroys you
that all the books you read
and all the things you internalize
don't add up to shit
when you realize
you're just another pretty face
and thats all you are
getting nowhere with nothing
cause you want to be so much more than that
but you never figured out how to do a goddamn thing
for yourself

everyone you ever care about
will tire of you
and let you go for something better
because no one wants a future
with a mess like you
