Yup, I wrote an original song!! Thank you to Kristel "Kazaki" Cuadra who wrote the instrumental for me. This song is about how hard it can be to reach out when you need help, and is my way of sharing my experiences as someone who struggles with mental illness. I hope it is able to make the impact it was written for <3 Enjoy! Lyrics:
"Up against the world" is what I say in my mind When things get tough it's easy to say "It must be a sign" Facing all the world while standing all alone I'm fooling myself, pretending I'm strong, but it's all I have known My reality is what I choose it to be I bully myself, exhausting myself, till that's all I see Maybe if I chose to only live in 'now' The terrors ahead and terrors behind just might not pull me down But it's so hard to lift yourself when panic clouds your thoughts And it's so hard to smile when in the dark "How are you going?" "What'cha been doing?" These are both questions I have no response to Why do you care? Is it that you cannot bear to see me The way that I am? I know everything that goes on inside your head You're easy to read, mind open to me, that's all there's to be said You can't understand what it's like to be me Don't reason it out, just get up and leave, that's simply how I feel But it's so hard to push away the people close to you And it's so hard to hear they won't give up Why am I like this? Why can't I fight it? These are both questions I have no answers to Why do you care? Is it that it hurts to see me like this, The way that I am I feel empty inside, all that's left is a husk Cannot feel, cannot shed a single tear Maybe this time I should try something new I know that would be the right thing to do Taking a shaky step closer to you Could it really that bad? "How are you going?" "What'cha been doing?" These are both questions I have no response to Why do you care? Is it that you cannot bear to see me The way that I am? Closing my eyes, I relented my fight And I whispered my soul out to you...
