“Why do you give a headache? What do you have to be stressed about?”
That’s what he says to me-
You don’t know what it’s like
Your friends are not dying
Your friends are not trying to
commit suicide
Your friends are not bumming money from you
so they can get an abortion
They do not come to you with bruises and
knife marks and black eyes
They do not tell you how much
they want to die
Everyone who you have ever cared for
has not left you
They have not been pushed away
They haven’t pushed you away
They have not run away because
they couldn’t handle it
Away
Away
You do not know the meaning of away
You do not have to worry about the way
you’ll make the money to pay this month
You don’t have to have your heart break
200 times a day
Because these things don’t bother you
You don’t have to
Defend
Explain
Proclaim
Expose
yourself everyday
You don’t have to try You don’t have to try
You don’t have to care
But I do
I do I do I do I do I do I do I do I do I do I do
Every day of my life whether I feel like it or not
I have no control
My life run by idiots who supposedly know best
just because they are clean
I don’t think so but, hey
I have no say in it
So you tell me–
what do i have to be stressed about?!!!
