Try to tell the voices in my head to get along
There’s too much going on
Too many directions to keep them all straight
Some things will just have to wait
Because I don’t have time right now
Get wrapped up in everything until it all stops
Because I’m tied up in knots
Succumb to the pressure to get it all right
It makes those knots so tight
If I can unravel one
Then the rest will come undone
I should go easier on myself
I could really use the break
To rid myself of the fear to make mistakes
Keep repeating it to myself
So next time I won’t forget
That I can’t keep up if I don’t allow for breath
Do whatever it takes until the voices are gone
Paranoid by the calm
Got so familiar with the feeling of being bound
But I can handle it now, because…
