I Don't Like It Like This

Words fail me all the time

I don’t even feel like talking

still I go on and on

I’m dying here and you keep walking

why are you asking me this?

can’t you see I’m trying?

I don’t like it like this

no I think I’m dying

I can’t calm down at all

panic is what panic feels like

can’t we just stay silent?

speaking now seems far too violent

why are you asking me this?

can’t you see I’m trying?

I don’t like it like this

no I think I’m dying
