Been drowning for long enough
Held under, pushed aside
And for what?
For what I ask you after all this time
For what this time?
A place at the end of the line
A place to rest my head and die
For what do I need to live this so called life
For what is it this time
The chains don’t go away
No matter how hard we try
The chains just jingle on
Gave you everything and in return?
Called me a liar, called me lazy
All you have are insults that don’t last
All you have are words that don’t mean shit
I’m over anything you have to offer
Anything that you value
Any idea you think is worth my time
For the last time I’m sick of giving in
Hope you prepared for your place in line
Because I’ve already found mine
Keep marching on because it is all that we know…
Always trying to out run this shadow
Only to turn and face it
Over and over again
Trying to out run this shadow
Has left me drained
Can’t escape what will be
A vision of the past follows me
With every step, with every attempt
Pieces of myself that I carry with me
The shadow it only grows closer
The space in between becoming smaller
The image it only grows stronger
As the two merge into one
The closer I get to the light at the end of the road
It hurts at first but then you get used to it… the literal definition of love…
Another day feeling like this
No sleep breeds a mood I can’t control
Succumbed to the emotions
Something else, I no longer know
Dragging me down to this level once again
Another day spent waiting for change
My own will isn’t what I thought it was
A weakness I carry in myself
Waiting for the day to end once again
Time spent doing the same things over and over
Begged for some kind of change
The devil doesn’t even know
What it is that I would give for this to go away
Because I asked and the answer stayed the same
Silently staring back into to nothing
Another day feeling like this
Shaking off all the rust inside my head
A slow process, another way of saying
Trapped in place and shutting down
Slowly screaming through another day
Another day feeling like this
