I’M TIRED TOO

Every time you slammed the door 
Every time you dropped the call 
Every time you yell at me through and through 
I get tired too. 

Every time you passed before me 
Every time complaints ring upon me 
Every time murmurs being me 
I get tired too. 

Am I your emotions punching bag? 
Am I your stress reliever? 
Am I your eyes strainer? 
Can’t take it anymore 

I wanna flee faraway 
Hiding in mountains, caves and valleys 
Where shadows are no more 
Pissing me off I can’t control 

Every time I was criticized
Every time I was embarrassed 
Every time I’m manipulated 
Underrated, I get tired too. 

Most of the time you frown 
Tantrums hit the ground 
The reasons are unknown I got mixed emotions 

I wanna stay away 
For toxics just have pure fun with me 
Seizing my right to be me 
Seeing me as a piece of prey 

I get tired, I am tired I am exhausted 
I am frustrated 
Getting messed with you 
I wanna fight back with you 
But it’s not necessary for I love you so 

Strangled by the bond that cannot be taken 
It’s not mistaken, it’s purely original 
Don’t know how can this be shaken 
My life is not optimal
