Look How You've Grown

I sat myself down to cry today

It’s like a weekly ritual

Got it all scheduled, date and a time

Wouldn’t want not to be frugal

Even the strongest glass can break

And some hurt you get used to

Rinse and repeat, easier to heal

The more I pull myself through

I can be hard on myself

But only for my mental health

I’m not quite where I used to be

But I’m trying relentlessly

Sometimes life can feel like it’s forever and ever

(You can be hurting baby, but don’t let it show)

Come on try for me, cry for me, keep it together

(Make it look easy baby, ‘cause you’re on your own)

Oh, my, my, my

Am I me or my mind?

Am I broke by design?

Am I wasting my time?

Come on try for me, fight for me, keep getting better

(Nothing’s forever baby, look how you’ve grown, grown, grown)

I paint the sadness with a smile

Letting the pain drip behind me

Ignore my physique and chronic fatigue

And everything else off about me

Then I’ll make myself into an island

And call it a brain break

Whatever I like is what I prescribe

See you in 3-5 working days

I stitch up all my wounds

I got myself into this mess

So I must be the one to fix me

Do I make it look easy? Yes

Sometimes life can feel like it’s forever and ever

(You can be hurting baby, but don’t let it show)

Come on try for me, cry for me, keep it together

(Make it look easy baby, ‘cause you’re on your own)

Oh, my, my, my

Am I me or my mind?

Am I broke by design?

Am I wasting my time?

Come on try for me, fight for me, keep getting better

(Nothing’s forever baby, look how you’ve grown, grown, grown)
