They

I hate myself more with every word they say

With every movement they make

I further break

Constantly, every day,

Overcome by all the words I can't say

Lost in the echoes

Drowned in the shallows

Forgotten for a moment

I dunno where that girl went

Pulled deeper by the things they say

Arguments they make

Swept away

As my hands begin to shake

Pushed away from them

Trimmed at the stem

Lost in the echoes

Drowned in the shallows

Is this how it goes?

I guess...

No one really knows.
