You're like the villain in my own story as soon as it seems good you reappear, what was once so close is no longer near. When I take one step forward, you take two steps back two steps forward, four steps back no matter where I go, I'm always trapped. I stand on these crutches but others stand higher, while they're looking ahead, I'm looking tired I guess it's just how we're wired. We've convinced ourself this is normal "I'm just stuck in a rut!" but in actuality, maybe I'm just a nut?
