Leave Me Be

If I scream

Will anyone hear?

Will any one care?

 

I am losing it

 

I can’t handle it all

 

God sometimes I just want to fall

Lay still

Don’t move

 

Leave me here

 

I am so tired

My bones ache

 

I am so tired

 

How much am I required to take?

 

True, some troubles I brought on myself

 

I still need a break

 

Everyone’s down my throat

 

Telling me what they thought

 

I do not care

All of ya’ll in my business

Worrying me

On my back

Questioning me

 

Beware

 

I am losing it

 

Let me be

 

Leave me here

 

Let me free

 

Free of all the responsibility

Free of all of you telling me what I should or shouldn’t do

 

Leave me be!

 

     Wish I could lay on breeze and drift away silently

 

But I bet one of ya'll would find me
