do you think I'm joking?

I think they just like it when I'm here
Only I just like it when I'm there
When I'm with them
But I get fucking scared as hell when I knock down the walls and see the truth
It's so fucking useless
What the fuck am I supposed to do with this now
I am atlas with the world on my shoulders
Apparently I'm supposed to have another half who will help me carry it
I lay awake in bed at home on the street I grew up on
And I know that there is something wrong with me
And I do nothing to fix it
I'm just trying to be a better person
But not knowing how is getting in the way
And knowing you'd leave me even if I had you for a day
Is probably the worst feeling of all
