Exhausted

I'm tired of crying, I'm tired of burning Tired of this illuisionist way of learning Tired of struggling & tired of churning I'm tired of being & doing what everyone says I'm tired of all the games people play I'm tired of being the last one taken care of I'm tired of not being shown everyone else's love I wanna be alone by myself - & free for me 'Cause I can do it 4 them, but nobody sets me free I know what I want & I know how to get it All I gotta do is crack the mothering whip To ultimately show everyone I'm done with the I'm liking the look of being on my own So I can rely on myself to make a house a home I wanna make my life how I want to I don't need you, you, or you, & you While everyone's first - I'm always last In my life - I need to take out the ing trash If I can see my worth & nobody else does Then nobody else is worthy of my love If everyone else can't handle the concept of me Secluded in my witchy treehouse is where I'll be Rollercoaster days & rollercoaster nights I fight for everyone else - but for me nobody fights Do you see me? What you see is what you get Once you've tasted me - you'll never forget it The sheer disrespect I've currently endured today No more chances & there's no more fixin' it anyway
