Outside Myself - Stepson

It’s like I’m drowning in shallow water

Because I have no strength to lift my head

It’s likes there’s a million tiny knives in my chest

It’s like there’s non existent hands around my neck

Constantly try to touch

Why does this happen to me?

Why should this happen to me?

I tend to overthink everyday situations

Predicting there outcomes

Piece together what will and won’t happen

It makes my heartbeat a million miles an hour

My eyes start to well

I feel like I’m outside myself

I feel like I’m outside myself

Looking in

But I can do nothing to help

I can do nothing to help

Nothing to help me

Close my eyes

Take a deep breath

Take a moment
