Empathy

I wish I could tell them all the things, I felt
But nothing seems fair enough to me
I wish they could understand how it feels
To hurt every time you try to breathe

And I
Don’t know why
I keep holding up
I keep holding on
And I
Fight so hard to keep everything alive
Everything inside me carrying on

I wish they could tell me pleasing things, for once
But all I hear is judgement, oh please
I wish I could smile everyday, for real
Instead of this I cry for anything

But I don’t know why
I keep holding up
I keep holding on
And I
Fight so hard to keep everything alive
Everything inside me

It eats me alive, from inside out
And kills every chance that I have to find myself
I hate these things I felt
And when I’m alone, it’s worse than before
Because I don’t have any control at all
Of all these things I felt

And I don’t know why
I keep holding on
I keep holding up
And I
Fight so hard to keep everything alive
Everything inside me carrying on
