About Me

I'm Alright

You ask me how I feel today
And I say "I'm alright"
I am tired
I am scared
I am weary
But I'm alright
I live in fear
I am haunted
I feel alone
But I'm alright
I cry all the time
And I feel worthless
And I hate me most of the time
But I'm alright
I'm frustrated
I don't live
I just exist in some cruel way
But I'm alright
Sometimes I wanna die
Sometimes I hurt so much
But still I say...
"I'm alright...
Don't worry bout me"
