something new

a year of trying

back at the beginning

DOESNTALWAYSGOWRONG

it was a friendly check-in
but i was listening to a sad song
i swear i was doing fine before
for a while even
but honestly i'm not sure
i've been toeing the line
for a very long time
deciding if this is my
new pace
face the facts
i don't know what i'm doing
but i'm smiling most days

so when you ask
'are you taking care of yourself?'
i just put the phone down
instead of lying or getting it off of my chest
i just put the phone down
i guess my guilt outweights my trust in you
don't want you to carry more
when you've been heavy
so when you ask
'are you taking care of yourself?'
i'll just call it a night tonight
