I've lost my sense of happiness I've lost my point in life As I stare upon my phone screen Not a single message lights And I cry and I cry Dont stop me From attempting to fill this void I smile and I smile Dont fault me For letting myself be destroyed I'm alone right now Watching it all pass me by As people change and move on I stand idoly to the side Its tearing me apart Demon clawing at my soul Dragging me down into the abyss Buried deep below These chains tightening Its harder to breath Don't try and save me Its pointless as I have the key Its comforting these shackles As at least I have a place I belong When the world around give me no purpose Its me that has to somehow live on Even when all the friends I have leave And I've been beaten and deceived I've always been alone There is no one I can trust A mere passing fancy blinded by lust And it appears to me I've grown too reliant On the birds that perch upon my window Keeping me company but only for awhile Before flying away back into the sky Where they belong Unlike the caged bird with her wings clipped off Singing softly to those who listen while the owner merely sits back and watch In the cage she is happy As she knows no other life Unlike the free birds Who know how to fly
