hoping people can identify with the pressure
Pressured.
I can't do this.
Listen to me!
I'm not who you think i am.

I'm not who you think I am
I'm not.
Its all a lie,
a fantasy, a mix-up, confusion.

Don't tell me what to do.
Don't make me.
I can't cope.
I don't understand.

suffocated!
i'm stuck, I cant see, breathe, hear,
I need to escape.
i'm pressuring myself.

never wanted anything so much
desire it, need it, worked for it
tell me I deserve it
tell me I can do it.

Reassure me, calm me, allow me to succeed
give me time to understand,
I need this, I want this
Do I deserve this?
