Selfish Nightmare

this pit in my stomach won't go away
you're in my mind and there you'll stay.
you're like a disease, coming and going, and ruining my day
i feel better, and then i remember.

it's easy for you. turn it on, turn it off.
my mind twists and turns with what if's, and why.
i can't shut it off. i can't shut you out.
you're there. everywhere.
go away. leave me alone.

you selfish, selfish nightmare.
