Tie Your Shoes

Always keep my vans tied
So don't ever say I'm tripping 
Not even when I'm falling or diving off the board of depression 
I'm bored of always hanging around my own thoughts having conversations with me, myself, and I
I need counseling but can't afford it 
Everybody has a dark side 
Most are just too dark to admit it
One day I might say goodbye without a warning 
Life has become so boring when all you do is lay in bed, so you don't take your own life
Low cut vans and high-top expectations I can't live up to
Questioning myself, is this really you
Questioning myself, what are you going to do
Telling myself you have to choose
Vans always tied but someone must have untied them or tied them together because it's hard to walk toward my destiny
Depression is weighing me down so much I can't feel a thing
Depression weighing me down I'm paralyzed in bed
Falling asleep to the lies
Looking for the truth 
Vans always tied
Which ones will you wear today
p.s. you choose...
