You Stick Around
Emotional Resilience: Finding Solace in Turmoil
Lyrics
I can’t come back
I am unable to return.
I’m sucked in
I am deeply involved or captivated.
This rooms a cell
This space feels confining, like a prison.
I’m shrinking
I feel myself diminishing or becoming smaller.
I say “I’m fine, I’m Sorry”
I present a facade of being fine and apologetic.
You know I’m not
You understand that I am not okay.
You worry
You express concern or anxiety.
I wanna leave this all in my head
I wish to keep everything troubling me within my thoughts.
Struggle to find the words, can’t help it
I find it difficult to articulate my feelings.
But when I say I’m off, you calm me down
When I indicate I am stepping away, you reassure and calm me.
You stick around
You remain present despite the challenges.
I’m lying down
I am lying down, possibly feeling defeated.
Defeated
You rub my head
To alleviate my distress or discomfort.
To ease it
I’m lost in thought and feeling
You comfort me closely, as if I am wounded.
You hold me close like I’m bleeding
I wanna leave it all in my head
I prefer to internalize my struggles.
Struggle to find the words, can’t help it
Expressing my feelings is challenging for me.
Bearing with my thoughts, I’m hopeless
I endure my thoughts with a sense of hopelessness.
When you know I’m off, you calm me down
Even when I am distant, you have a calming effect.
You stick around
You remain supportive and present despite my challenges.
