Analysis of Memoirs of a Mental Breakdown (pt.2)
is war a popularity contest between countries?
is that all it is?
why don't they just make up?
apologize?
why can't i do that?
why do i leave?
THEY DON'T WANT YOU
no
THAT'S WHY YOU LEAVE
i don't want to focus today
LISTEN
no no no
shut up
i don't care
im tired of myself
too bad i cant leave
like i do
everything else
but between countries?
or me and me?
