The New Me
#1
I conclude in my head
that my angel of bliss is dead.
Now with that partially said,
I can finally sleep on my bed.

Because for days on end,
I kept trying to defend
the really stupid myth
that I had a fairy friend.

She touches me and I'm all happy.
She sleeps and my day gets crappy.
It gets so bad that I'd rather have
some person constantly slap me.

It's true that I'm really lazy,
cuz I think of life as crazy,
but if I try just a little harder next time
then just maybe my days won't be so hazy.

I can try to be me
at the best of my ability,
but being all I can be
just takes so much out of me.

I think I know what I'm doing,
I end completely in ruins.
I try to play as best as I can,
but I end up sitting out and boo-ing.

All this contemplating,
can't at all be good.
Trying to do things the best I can,
maybe someday I should.

Would I have the courage,
the strength to recieve that message,
that I possibly can't be anything in life
if I'm still living in this garbage.

I should climb out and think,
because eventually I will sink.
If I live and stay this way,
I'll surely sink before I blink.

So farewell you old world,
in which you know the old me.
Hello oh new world,
in which I'll be all I can be.
