You shatter my self-esteem like glass You drift away from me like wind blown amongst ash Wallowing in fear and shame Drowning with a lack of confidence Never trusting, always doubting Never smiling, always sulking Wishing for a good day Hoping for a better day Losing my way, pushed astray Not knowing who I am Never knowing what I will end up becoming Looking ahead in the far distance... Only a bleak future waits for me Grey sullen days and the blackest nights All alone, all on my own Destined loneliness is my calling Ever since birth I’ve been falling Fallen and falling still a crooked path Tumbling down endlessly No helping or guiding hand can catch me Nor point me towards salvation I am merely cursed to exist From the beginning and until the end...

Destined Loneliness
You shatter my self-esteem like glass You drift away from me like wind blown amongst ash Wallowing in fear and shame Drowning with a lack of confidence Never trusting, always doubting Never smiling, always sulking Wishing for a good day Hoping for a better day Losing my way, pushed astray Not knowing who I am Never knowing what I will end up becoming Looking ahead in the far distance... Only a bleak future waits for me Grey sullen days and the blackest nights All alone, all on my own Destined loneliness is my calling Ever since birth I’ve been falling Fallen and falling still a crooked path Tumbling down endlessly No helping or guiding hand can catch me Nor point me towards salvation I am merely cursed to exist From the beginning and until the end...
