I'm Becoming a Hopeless Case It's Getting Easier To Tell

Don't look at me for help 
Nowadays I don't leave the house
Do you want a recap of my anxiety
I only write about what I know
I haven't lied since 2016

So let me tell you how 
I won't be anything you love
You'll get tired of me being over emotional
I've been abused and cheated on 
More times than I can count

Tell a hopeless joke I read off the internet
Now I got a whole room laughing
As I want to curl up in a corner and cry
I'm good at being lonely 
So don't waste your breath on me
