I Am Alice (From the Novel Go Ask Alice)

I am tempted and confused
I wonder if I made the right choice
I hear voices in my head telling me to stop
I see my life being washed away by the choices I make
I want to be free
I am tempted and confused

I pretend like I know what I'm doing
I feel alone
I touch my skin to feel the scars
I worry about my safety
I cry to be set free
I am tempted and confused

I understand that this isn't good for me
I say I will be fine
I dream that I can stop
I try stop
I hope I can stop
I am tempted and confused
