Better Off Without Me

I’m a broken person in my heart and mind
My world been distorted there’s no reality 
No doctors can find a cure I cannot be saved
You should go you’re better off without me

I’m scared of myself and who I’ve become 
I’m called a danger to myself and to society 
Why are you here trying to love me still
You must leave you’d be better off without me 

My emotions are all blended up together 
Anger frustration anxiety is my loves recipe
I cannot love you the way that you deserve 
It’s tragic but you’d be better off without me 

They’ve tried but failed make me feel better
How can you say you love someone this faulty 
leave me alone you know there is no cure
Go away please you are better off without me
