I Don't Feel Too Good

I'm not feeling very well

But it's not physical, so it's fine.

I've got to stay home,

To stay safe

To stay alive

I could go to the doctors,

But nothing physically hurts,

And the services are stretched as it is,

I'd be a burden, and they already have too much work.

The issue is just...

Just me, myself and I,

I'm sat at home all day thinking,

Staying safe, staying alive,

But worrying about the world,

About everything that's going wrong,

And about me and my impact, another body, another problem

And when I do say to someone,

I don't feel very well.

And they say 'why?'

I say it's my mind,

My thoughts are making me I'll

They say- you're just being sensitive.

The feelings will pass,

There are others, physically sick, sicker than you,

We should get to them first

And we should, and they're right,

So I'll just find a way to cope,

I'm sorry I even mentioned it,

I'll be fine, I'll try not to mope
