I am lost inside, no were to go,
this nagging feeling of pain is coming from
my head,
I feel like I’m gonna fall from my feet, and
with me will go everyone else
I am holding up so much, or at least that’s
how I feel,
no one out there knows how I feel on the inside,
or at least I don’t think they do
I need time to figure it all out, every path
I can see brings pain unto those close to me,
those I love, those for whom I care, whenever
I ask for some time, its seems they all Despair,
I don’t ask for much, and yet I give it all,
and yet when I ask for myself, the order seems to tall
I don’t even know if I know who I am, I am
bent to there ways, yet it is the path I want,
I want to help and heal, yet I don’t want
to have to handle it all,
not when they don’t listen, not when they
don’t care,
not when my tattered body lays here dry and
bare
my bones nice and bleached, my flesh picked
by crows, they squabble for bits of me, they fight to and fro
I tried to hold my ground, and every time
I fell, but once I found my footing, and I let out the greatest yell
"I love myself, I really do"
for long I stood that ground, not needing
any care, but like before I said, I now lye here dry and bare,
my eyes still in there place, some skin left
on my face, my hand still seems to work, yet my back still holds the dirk.
I held that ground, I really did, I know it
was not meant, and I care not who did the deed,
because my body lies here dying, no longer
will I bleed,
I have many reasons to go on, and all of you
are them, to bad I cant count myself among one of them
I don’t know what to do, and maybe I never
will, these words I am trying to speak, will soon become my cell
I weave it very tightly, I weave it very well,
and yet I made a simple key, for my simple cell
inside it I now thrive, happy to be alone,
yet all come pounding down, down upon my home
why cant I think in peace about myself, I
always think of you, and when I need my time to come, you make me think
of you
I cannot sit here knowing, that I am the cause
of more pain, I have enough work to do, I cannot make any more,
so I claw my way out, I go to your plea’s,
of help me kind sir, a moment of your time please? It seems as though my
life is set upon this silly track, I would try to escape, but I lead it
all, I cannot bring it down,
I worry to much for you all, I really want
to be free, and yet all of you follow, all of you follow me.
if I could let you go, and travel this track
alone I would, for then I would only have myself to worry for,
yet I cannot, I have tried, and in return
you all cried
"what did we do wrong, what action did displease"
you see my little children I do not want these plea’s
I am not leaving you to hurt you, nor cause
you any pain,
you see my little children, from that I would
not gain,
I wish to set you free from me, to never hurt
again,
for as one man I would not have to worry,
worry for you again,
I could go forth into my life, no worried
but myself, that life would be death for me, living by myself
yet for it I wish, for one reason see, that
simple reason is, for time, time for me.
