I'M Not Well

I'm not well,
I haven't been well
For quite some time now.

Being followed by the loud silence,
Wherever I go, it goes with me.
I'd like to ask, who gave you the license
To sneak in my head, "she's crazy, isn't she?
And pathetic."
You're empathic?

Well, you say you are.
Don't understand how far
Is too far.
"I'm no friend of her."

Go on, tell 'em,
Wrap me in shame.
"Well, no one else would."
"I had to so no one else could."
Go on and break me down.
It's easy for you to not came around.

Yes, I remember ; yes, I do.
All your little secrets and the dirty ones too.

But I'mma stay shut and let you rule,
Believing the liar, I'm the fool.

I haven't been well,
For quite some time now.
Waiting for the farewell,
It could be anytime now.
