I walked down the corridor of life with everyone, When I found myself with no energy left; I collapsed on the spot with great fear, Unable to move and stared in horror As everyone kept on moving; I couldn't scream out for help For I was completely paralyzed; Calling out wouldn't have done any good For everyone continued to walk over me Pretending that I wasn't in need of help They turned their heads away And I stayed there until everyone was gone; All of the lights have now gone out, Leaving me alone with my thoughts, Wondering what I had done wrong.

Collapsed
I walked down the corridor of life with everyone, When I found myself with no energy left; I collapsed on the spot with great fear, Unable to move and stared in horror As everyone kept on moving; I couldn't scream out for help For I was completely paralyzed; Calling out wouldn't have done any good For everyone continued to walk over me Pretending that I wasn't in need of help They turned their heads away And I stayed there until everyone was gone; All of the lights have now gone out, Leaving me alone with my thoughts, Wondering what I had done wrong.
