Backsliding
Malcolm Xavier Jackson
I'm so fucked up
Got yelled at again
And I couldn't take it this time
Tried to stand
But I got weak in the knees
Started fire in my guts
Supposed to be a man
Or so I've been told,
I've never been so sure.
But here I am
Just one little phrase
And I'm just a child again
This is all your fault
How could I know I was wrong
When I've never done this before
I tried to hold on
But give me a break
Not a needle in my throat
I'm supposed to be strong
But how could I win
When you've turned me against myself
There I go
against the wall
And I'm just a child again
again
again
again
