Teddy

Alone, afraid, hating myself

Trying to piece together what I once had

Trying to find myself again

To deal with the remnants of a broken thread of trust

Chorus:

Crying, trying to let it out

The feeling which that mare left within me

Flashbacks, fear, self-loathing

But at least I have my teddy bear

Like the yolk of an uncooked egg, leaking out through its cracks

Once I manage to stop the bleeding, new cracks appear in their place

I want to stop; to be more myself

But the more I try to deal with the feelings I'd neglected, the more lost I feel

Chorus:

Crying, trying to let it out

The feeling which that mare left within me

Flashbacks, fear, self-loathing

But at least I have my teddy bear

I wish someone would hold me, tell me things are alright

I want a safe haven, with one who would take their time with me

But I'm afraid of coming out of the closet again

Playing with the idea of cutting myself, but stopping my thoughts every time

Chorus:

Crying, trying to let it out

The feeling which that mare left within me

Flashbacks, fear, self-loathing

But at least I have my teddy bear
