This journey I'm leading keeps getting darker and darker,
My soul fading farther and farther.
The wrong choices,
The wrong attitude.
I feel of no purpose to anything...
Or anyone.
In fact, I don't feel much at all.
When the numbness subsides,
I awake only to feelings of disappointment and shame.
Disappointment that nothing has changed,
And shame for not trying.
When there's no one to lean on for help,
No one to talk to get it all out,
No one to tell you it's going to be okay,
And no one to love you when you're at your worst...
You fall.
Fall into a deep, dark, pit of hatred and loneliness,
With no will to claw your way out,
And no one to lend a hand to pull you up...
No one.
