Voices Aren't Me

You idiot.

You loser.

What is wrong with you?

Every little thing you say

I find a way to make it untrue

Did you say too much?

Did you say too little?

Why can't you ever get it right?

I turn a normal moment

Into another sleepless night

You take every piece of blame

And throw it back at me

You make me doubt my own reflection

You make me doubt what I see

Get out, get out,

get out of my head

I’m so tired of the things you’ve said

“You’re worthless, you’re nothing,

Nobody

will stay

Nobody could ever love you

anyway.”

And I know I shouldn’t listen

But you sound so real sometimes I just want to breathe I

just want some peace I’ll never be enough

You always ruin everything.

You never learn.

Look at what you did again.

You replay every conversation Like there’s something I should’ve known

Maybe I don’t have to fight you Maybe I can let you

speak

Without letting every word you say

Become a definition of me

Wait…

Just wait…

What if you’re wrong?

What if I’m more

Than every mistake you keep reminding me of?

You don’t get to decide

Who I become. I’m still here.

I’m still trying.

And maybe that has to mean something.

Get out, get out,

get out of my head I’m not believing everything you said

You can call me a loser You can tell me I’m weak

But you don’t get to choose

You can scream that I’m worthless

You can tell me I’m alone

But underneath all your noise

There’s a voice of my own

You idiot.

You loser.

You’ll never get it right.

Maybe I won’t.

But I’m still here.

And I’m still trying.

And tonight—

I’m listening to me.
