I'm lost today because I lost my way yesterday and the day before and so on...

I'm just trying to find my way back to you because I loved you yesterday and the day before and so on...

Just can't find my way without your voice

I'm listening now

Can you hear me?

Can you see me?

Ignore the gross figure I've become because I'm not that

It's just the thing that rides on my back

That ugly thing

You know the one

The one that whispers in your ear nasty things

That says you're not good enough, smart enough or pretty

Has it ever ridden upon your back?

Do you know what I say?

Please tell me you've seen this thing because I know it's there

I can't be the only one who has carried this thing

This abomination has gotten me lost and to itself

And it just dawned on me that maybe you have one too

I'm sorry

It's a shitty beast

I can tell you that I'll stop listening to mine and call your name

Just follow my voice until you see me again

"Hello?"
