Chapter 6 - my mind is my fear

My mind tells me and my body what to do

We worked great, looked better than ever

But one piece of a broken heart destroyed my whole night

Now my mind tells me to eat because there's nothing else to do

But then it screams at me judging for how I look

My mind tells me to stay home because my friends will worry

But then it screams that they hated me from beginning to end

My mind tells me to cry, to scream, to kill and do what I wanted to do.

But my mind tells me to cry because I'll end up alone like I used to.

They tell me to vent.

Vent to who?!

My mind tells me and my body what to do

You shouldn't be near

Because my mind is my greatest fear.
