What Is Wrong

What is wrong? You don't sing the normal song. Your tune is so off, the words all seem so wrong. You're losing your mind? You're falling apart? This can't be out of the blue. Just when did this start? What don't you understand? I can't help, if I don't know.                                                                       What is wrong?                                                                                 I'm trying to explain,                                                                            and I don't know why,                                                                        but I feel so very vain,                                                                            what was the song,                                                                        I used to sing?                                                                         I'm trying so hard.                                                                        I'm on shattered glass.                                                                     I'm holding these rocks,                                                                  no, boulders of the past.                                                                   I cry out to you,                                                                 but what could you do?                                                                     I'm so scared.                                                                         I'm not strong. What is wrong? Please tell me what's wrong? Why are you scared? I know, you're not strong. I don't know how to save you. I'm no hero, you know. I'm trying so hard to help you, but I'm stuck in the front row. We all love you, just please, tell us just what is it you need? So that we can help you, and heal as you bleed.                                                            What is wrong?                                                                I've changed.                                                                   I'm running from my life.                                                                            I've lost that 'optimistic' me.                                                                         Now who am I left to be?                                                         Have I fallen like an angel?                                                                      Or am I still on earth?                                                                         Why is pain so painful?                                                                            Just when did I disperse?                                                                         Where am I,                                                                       if i'm not here? Somehow I just disappear?                                                                   I'm unstable.                                                                          Save me.                                                                 Save me.                                                                      Save me.                                                                       I plead.                                                               Tell me the answer I really need. What    is    wrong- with me?
