I could've swallowed the truth since day one

but instead I'm swallowing the poison

and acting like It's okay

while it burns and stings

a hole into my throat.

As I choke it down

I realize,

I'm worse than I thought

and despite what I'm told

I'm on my own.

for I'm killing everyone with the poison

In my own mind

I couldn't keep in.
