I don't need any help as I yell out falling back down to the bottom again. Like Sisyphus, I have an ordeal in my life that I cannot seem to surpass. in-san-ity is repeating the same thing expecting a difference to pass. Why can't I accept that not everything needs to be solved? Why can't I accept help in my life from the ones that I love above all? I guess its because I believe in myself that I challenge the people on top. the way i keep going about it is why people have been telling me to stop. the ones up above never listen, but i reach the peak of the mountain a lot. my lackadaisical attitude is just a facade to cover my heart. I need to protect it when I get rejected because I can't handle being unloved. Adopting my problems, they're newly discovered, I always just an artist's personal lot. Soon after, I was too deep, caught up in what I was hoping what I had forgot. how could you be there for me when dealing with me is a lot how could you be there for me when I keep pushing you away the most? what I was hoping that I had forgot. how could you be there for me when dealing with me is a lot how could you be there for me when it seems like my mind is completely gone? how could you be there for me when i push you away and keep telling everyone off the strings that are holding me together are becoming too taught how could you be there for me when i push you away and keep telling you off pushing this boulder is draining me and the strings holding me together are becoming too taught why can't i climb to the top of the mountain while pushing the boulder on up? why do I always insist on doing this when everyone tells me to stop? why can't I try to find something with which I can use to climb up in my mind?

Why can't I accept that not everything needs to be solved? Why can't I accept help in my life from the ones that I love above all? I TRY!!! yes, I TRY!!! people don't seem to understand.-- you're the only one that gets me,-- but i'm the dog that keeps biting your hand.-- I wish that I could tell you i'm sorry-- but i don't think that I can-- my pride always gets the best of me-- that's why i can barely stand-- this weight on my shoulders is becoming too much to bear-- so please tell me, why do you care?-- please tell me-- why do you care?-- I don't mean to sound ungrateful, but I guess that I technically am, i keep taking and taking and taking from you while offering nothing I can. I suppose that I'm capable of giving and changing my worth but i'm too concerned by the trials ahead, and this overwhelming crushing burden. tell me, please tell me, am I worth it to you? and if so, why do you believe so? I offer nothing of value. the only thing I can offer, are the burdens that I own, but you don't seem to want to let me carry them up the mountain alone. I don't think I could ever repay you, for anything you've done, but maybe, just maybe, with you, these challenges, I can overcome. people don't seem to understand.-- you're the only one that gets me (gets me)-- but i'm the dog that keeps biting your hand.-- I wish that I could tell you i'm sorry (i'm sorry)-- but i don't think that I can-- my pride always gets the best of me-- that's why i can barely stand-- this weight on my shoulders is becoming too much to bear-- so please tell me, why do you care?-- please tell me (why do you care?)-- I don't mean to sound ungrateful, but I guess that I technically am, (I am) i keep taking and taking and taking from you while offering nothing I can.
