Stale Green Tea
Boiling water, one in the morning
Bloodshot eyes staring at the wall
Bare feet on the linoleum floor
Hold the mug and let the water pour
Sitting in bed, shaking and hurting
Curled in a ball
Protected
Scratching at my skin, head whirring in bold
Stale green tea sits on the desk going cold
I hate to see that you are doing badly
But I can't help but be selfish
'Cuz I'm not feelin' up to the pressure now
It's all too much, I don't know how
Knees pulled under my chest
Face-first on my pillow
Shoulders heaving, keeping time
Four AM; it's far too late
But the exhaustion hasn't hit yet
So I'll lay here, cry and wait
I hate to see that you are doing badly
But I can't help but be selfish
'Cuz I'm not feelin' up to the pressure now
It's all too much, I don't know how
I can't help it
I am selfish
I can't help it
I am selfish
Bloodshot eyes staring at the wall
Bare feet on the linoleum floor
Hold the mug and let the water pour
Sitting in bed, shaking and hurting
Curled in a ball
Protected
Scratching at my skin, head whirring in bold
Stale green tea sits on the desk going cold
I hate to see that you are doing badly
But I can't help but be selfish
'Cuz I'm not feelin' up to the pressure now
It's all too much, I don't know how
Knees pulled under my chest
Face-first on my pillow
Shoulders heaving, keeping time
Four AM; it's far too late
But the exhaustion hasn't hit yet
So I'll lay here, cry and wait
I hate to see that you are doing badly
But I can't help but be selfish
'Cuz I'm not feelin' up to the pressure now
It's all too much, I don't know how
I can't help it
I am selfish
I can't help it
I am selfish
