Im sitting here, overwhelmed with myself
I'm sitting here, exhausted from the day
I'm sitting here, but ready to cry
I'm sitting here, but I feel like I'm failing

I'm thinking, but it's so much
I'm thinking, but I'm tired of my thoughts
I'm thinking, but my brain is on overdrive
I'm thinking, but it's overwhelming

I'm alive, but I'm existing
I'm alive, but I'm sitting here
I'm alive, but I'm pitiful
I'm alive, but I don't feel real

I'm failing, but I'm trying in my mind
I'm failing, but I don't know where to start
I'm failing, but I can't figure anything out
I'm failing, but I'm seriously trying

I'm crying, I know I shouldn't
I'm crying, I'm not looking for sympathy
I'm crying, what is happening to me?
I'm crying, my mind is cracked

I can't believe that I survived
I can't believe I beat the odds
I can't believe I'm thinking about the worst
I can't believe I'm fixated

I'm in a dark place today
But maybe tomorrow will be better
Maybe even later today
The worst has happened
But I'm scared it'll be back
The best is here
The best is coming
But sometimes it gets worse before better
I'm in a dark place today
But why is my mind so firm on the worst?
I don't even agree with myself today
I can't think
But later today
Hopefully
Hopefully tomorrow
I'll be okay again
These dark spots don't last forever
And I need to remember that
So yes…
I'm sitting here
I'm thinking
I'm alive
I'm failing
And I'm crying
But I'm here
And that's what matters
We choose our fates
And I'm not going to let this dark patch be mine
