In The Dark

(album: layla - 2020)

Life went from bad to worse
But I turned that pain into art
I tried to write some music
But I tore the page apart
I got in bed with stupid men
That wasn't very smart
I let a fuck boy in and
Then he stole my fucking heart
I tried to be okay
I lied to everyone I know
I wanted to stay home
But then I forced myself to go (get the fuck up!)
I thought that I was doing good
But little did I know
The little voice inside my head
Was putting on a show

It don't make sense
But that's how it goes
I tried to run away but
I didn't know that
It follows you in the dark
They follow you in the dark

What the fuck...
What the fuck!
Are you kidding me right now?
Can anybody even hear me?
Hello? Hello?

I would kill to be the person
That makes it to the top
If you're really still concerned with me
Then call the fucking cops
You people like to fuck with me
Like this is not my job
I am a human being
Yet you treat me like a prop
I care about the music
Not the fucking revenue
I couldn't get a break
On the day I turned 22
And when my mother died it felt
Like that I died with her too
You're so confident on twitter
Walk a mile in my shoes
Bitch

It don't make sense
But that's how it goes
I tried to run away but
I didn't know that
It follows you in the dark
They follow you in the dark

Stop!
Stop following me!
