Remember Last April

Remember last April 
When I was basically incapable of practically anything?
Except for getting high 
To keep my sanity within my reach
I’d sit in my room and hide 
Pretty much every night 
It’s sad to say, but I’m still here

Where were you my dear?
I heard your screams why couldn’t you hear mine?
No, nothing is ever fine
I’ll just drink my fears away
Remember last April?

Wake up
To putting in this make up
And dance around like some happy f*cking clown
Turn that smile upside down
F*ck you snd f*ck this town
I miss my room already
At least in those four walls my mind was steady rotting away
Please just stay right there
I’m pulling out my hair just drinking about you

Where were you my dear?
I heard your screams why couldn’t you hear mine?
No, nothing is ever fine
I’ll just drink my fears away
Remember last April?

Meh
Cry me a river 
Feed your liver 19 shots of liquor 
Maybe one day we’ll wake up snd this will all just be a dream
Funny thing is I’ll still be in my room
And, you still won't be here

Remember last April?
Where were you my dear?
I heard your screams why
I could go on forever, but let’s never forget 
All of those empty “I love you’s”
Remember last April?
