Swallow your Pride

Listen to my voice,

Do I sound like I've been crying?

Put yourself on a pedestal,

Leaving me dead before I hit the water...

I'm sorry for being who I am,

I congregate our problems,

I start them but I can't solve them,

Analyze me into pieces,

Now I feel needed...

I put my loneliness aside,

Drop my image, exposing my lack of pride,

Uncomfortable in my own skin,

Drowning in my own sin,

Here I sit confused,

Frozen in pain,

What do I have to lose?

I have no shame.
