Tell You Somethin'

Hey friend, I need to tell you something

I'm not doing well inside my head

My heart is a bleeding mess

I'm dying slowly, I will confess

And the reason is that I cannot speak

Can't find the words to make you see

To make you feel like you're safe with me

Hey love, I need to say something

I'm a little broken inside this brain

I know that I'm kinda driving you insane

Because I'm battling all this pain

Well, battling everything in sight

Losing the war despite my might

Because I can't even fight right

Hey family, I need to tell you something

I'm an asshole even though I know

That I'm capable of being more

I know that it feels like all I show

Is me falling down, failing to grow

But I'll keep pushing through the pain

I know that, one day, pride I'll gain

Hey friend, I need to tell you something

Hey love, I have a thing to say

Hey family, listen to me for a second today

I'm screaming in your direction

Just begging for affection

Just needing some connection

But I can't find perfection

I'm lost in my deception

I say one thing but mean something else

I don't know the truth

I know you can tell that

I'm this close to my grade being fail

And, in this life game that feels like hell

I just wanna find a home

A place where I can be strong

A place for my forlorn soul

A place where I belong
