Leafless Hedge
doing what i'm asked just to feel like i'm strong
i'm living out my life but i'm doing it wrong
just tell me what you need and i'll follow along
cuz i can't figure out what's going on
watch the bird hop around the leafless hedge
before i close my eyes and focus on the out breath
the last thing that i do
to try and hold it together
but every day my mind keeps wandering off
if i manage to close my eyes at all
the final piece of structure
is sucked in the shredder
so tell me anything
that you don't wanna do
yeah tell me anything
and i'll follow through
if it's left up to me
i'd never have a use
cuz i'm not really here
but i'm here for you
doing what i'm asked just to feel like i'm strong
i'm living out my life but i'm doing it wrong
just tell me what you need and i'll follow along
cuz i can't figure out what's going on
put me all alone and my courage is gone
external validation is all that i want
there's value in myself but every problem in front
so i'll tank my mental health for the sake of a song
