Just Trying to Get By

by Diana   Dec 2, 2005


Slogging through the day
Just trying to get by
Trying to pretend
That it didnt happen
Trying to pretend
That I'm not crazy
That I'm not scarred
Trying to pretend
Like just another girl
Just another teenager
Keeping my head above water
Just trying to get by

Do you even remember?
Remember what happened that day?
Remember how you changed me?
Maybe not that day
Maybe not the next
But now?
Now I feel diifferent
Now i feel diseased
Now i feel like as if I'm going crazy
While trying to find if I am
But it doesnt matter to you
Do you even remember?

Just trying to get by
Through the ordinary day
While my insides creep and crawl
With my own, personal plague
Trying to hold it in
When it makes me want so much
To rip off my skin
And expose it for the world to see
See what's inside me
But i cant, cant get the words out of my mouth
So i just keep pushing
Pushing though the day
Just trying to get by
