Trying to be greater then life
Leaving all I had behind me
Leaving friends in the dust to make new ones
But eventually ill go unnoticed

Living behind a glass wall
Can see all I want but can get there
Fall back in pain, trying to crash through
On my feet again with no lesson learned

Trying to forget problems I had
Creating more problems as a result
More to forget, more to deal with
One problem became a life of problems

Digging a hole of denial
Were lies are my shovel
And only the truth can be my latter
Deeper, I’m going to where I belong

Living behind a glass wall
Can see all I want but can get there
Fall back in pain, trying to crash through
On my feet again with no lesson learned

Suicide, drugs, alcohol not the answer
The answer is just beyond my fingers
  In my eyes I see it all have it but me
For it is love of another one

Every one has someone but me
Is it because I try to hard
No it can’t be I gave up too much
Maybe that’s the problem

Have I given up all for nothing?
All that was for the nothing that is
Looked down to many
As they were looking down to me

Living behind a glass wall
Can see all I want but can’t get there
Fall back in pain, trying to crash through
On my feet again with a lesson learned
……
This time I venture a look behind me and I see all that I ever needed
