To A Confused Friend
I see you happy
I see you depressed
I see you with your boyfriend
and your bunches of friends
You say you envy me
You want my life you say
I sometimes wonder,
Do you really?
Would you be happy?
I can see why you'd want it,
from the outside
but inside it's different
Every day is a battle
Against my own minde
How I function in here is beyond me
So stop wishing to be me please
We all wish we were somebody else
I don't. I like where I am somehow
But trust me on this one, you'd hate it more.
