at times I feel lost in this world around me
its astounding how ive made this far
these scars tell the tale and I wear them well
I walk around in a daze my days a living hell
because I keep it all inside and dwell in this shell
oh well, that's the past right? Cant change if I tried.
So I just keep my head down and try to get by.
But it burns in the back of my mind
My soul is tattered and torn
Like newspapers blowing down the street
Not needed any more Yesterday's gone
No need to dwell in the past or regard the paper its on.
Swallowing tears down to hold up and stay strong
Cause I'm the only one that can keep myself moving on.
The lump goes down for NOW, but ready to attack in an instant
But an instant's all I need. I just need a minute while the pain recedes.
Deep breath and exhale. Let the light pour in and happiness prevail.
But its only for a moment before the joy turns stale
and shatters like mirrors in an earthquake
leaving me here blinking away the drops of emotion and heart ache.
