I need a break
A break from these people
A break from seeing them everyday

I need time away from seeing him look at her
I need space from the voices of victory
I need to be removed form the place I am in

I can't keep living in this place anymore
I feel as though the walls are closing in on me
I feel like I can't breath

Seeing her be with him is painful
Hearing her words coated with victory when she says your name
Seeing that glimmer in your eyes when you see her walk in the room kills me

Some day I just want to be the one that someone looks at like that
I want to be the one that someone talks about
I want someone to be the one that has the victory

Until then I will sit here with the walls constricting me
I will sit here and listen to your word cutting through my flesh
I will be here wait for that day to come
