12:20 Writer's Block

I wish i hadn't gone to bed at 7.
I wish it was 8 and my mom bursted into my room
asking about my day, asking whats up with my gloom
I wish it was 9 and my brother asked to watch glee together
even though he knows better
I wish it was 10 and my sister asked to sleep with me
knowing what the answer will be

"You don't need a bunch of scars in your arm to be depressed" she said
But I do need you, to write my best
"In my paradise we'd bathe in pink warm seas" she mentioned
In mine, all i need is your affection
"My head is going in circles, I don't want to talk about this anymore"
Where have I heard this before?
"How can you be so positive all the time?", she once asked
Baby, you should know its a mask
"My sleeping pills are kicking in"
Please stay with me, beauty queen

When you walk into the room they giggle and cough
But when you walked into my life, I knew I couldn't back off
Honey, what is it about us that pulls us in?
Are we stuck in this forever, like the scars in your skin?
