I am nothing

As you look at me now

I breathe; I scream; I cry; I feel

But all this is an illusion for what I truly am

What I'll never overcome

I am nothing

I'll never truly be seen

You say you care? Maybe you do

Even so I'm not worth the thought

I know what I am

What I'm worth

This life has left my conscious in the dirt

Soon I'll be in the ground

I'll be forgotten

Sure you might miss me for a while

But soon I'll fade away from your mind

Once again I'll be what I once was

What I'll always be

Nothing special for all to see

For all to forget
