The sadness in my life is the only thing that is consistent I feel so alone, so lost, so sad, and so distant I have days where I can do it, days when I’m good but then sometimes I feel so down, so useless, misunderstood I need another person, someone to burden with my pain If not then I could crash, i fear I’ll drift out of Lane And to change lanes at this speed would be such a disaster so to avoid this I have to speed up, I have to go faster I must brush everything under the rug, grab the wheel and keep going I need to stay strong, let my feelings build up without showing I see my friends laughing but I can’t even force a smile All I want is to feel okay, just feel normal for a while I keep chasing the feeling of feeling nothing at all There’s no one I can turn to, no one I can call My only relief is when I’m far too numb to feel As I get to escape this scary world to a place that isn’t real How can we be happy when we can’t cope, we can’t deal What even is happiness? because it’s something I don’t feel
