I look at old pictures and see the person I used to be
I look in my mirrors, and stare back at me uselessly
I just turned 23, thought I’d have it figured out by now
I had a choice when I was 18 and I choose the lonely route
Isolated myself from family and friends
Looked into reflections and played it pretend,
I don’t know why I feel how I do
Ain’t no cliche like ‘I’m missing you’,
Never felt love, I’m a hopeless romantic
My life it lacks meaning, it’s not how I planned it
Help me Lord, help me friend
Please let me see tomorrow’s end
Cuz I’ve been thinking bout calling quits
To close my eyes to all this ****
I’ve hurt myself too many times
And you have hurt me without knowing why,
I am sorry for what I’ve become
I’m still alive because I’m numb
For what I say and what I think
Are miles apart, I’m on the brink
****** rhymes, I feel like Elvis
There’s just one word to describe my life...
And it is ‘helpless’
