I've never wanted to feel like this,
To be emotional and broken.
I've never thought that I'll be helpless,
But here I am.
Since childhood hear I'm like no others.
Since childhood feel that I'm alone.
Since childhood: "You look like your father".
Bullshit.
And now I don't know who I am.
A gothic girl with a stack of books?
Or someone else? These thoughts again
Ruin my life.
I wanna feel, but not the pain.
I wanna live, but… how? Tell me.
