The Floodgates Open at Midnight
I’m on the balcony
Just after midnight
The rain rushes down
I can’t hide from myself
Water levels rising
Coming to the surface
I
can’t sleep
can’t breathe
it’s too soon
can’t cry
can’t scream
i’m so sorry
can’t laugh
can’t smile
just come back
can’t feel
can’t leave
it’s not fair
I didn’t ask for this
I’m sixteen
I didn’t ask for this
I’m sixteen
I
didn’t
ask
for
this
I’m only
sixteen
