Problematic (not Really The Prompt)
This is a song I’m working on called Problematic! It’s my own so please don’t take it!!! Song number 30 😭🫶🏻🫶🏻
Verse 1:
My mind is still racing I can’t turn it off,
my heart is still pounding I can’t make it stop,
I know that I’m breathing it’s just not enough,
gosh why are memories always this rough,
Chorus:
I’m so problematic and I’m such a burden to bear,
I’ve got dirt on my sleeves and so many times where,
I can’t breathe on my own,
stand to be alone even if I know I’m not really,
overthinkin’s like smoke or a poison that’ll choke me out til I’m no longer breathing
IM SO PROBLEMATIC
- Taylor Banes album (HUNGER)
All on a golden afternoon, under the skies of cloudless blue,
I smile, whisper and look up at you,
Cherishing this moment, I love you
