One step forward
Two steps back
I’m losing footing
In losing tact
On unstable ground
At least I’ve claimed my plot
Before they lay me back down
Everything is changing
While I stay the same
And it feels like I’m waking up to the same day
It’s the same old story
The same old place
Same old room, where I spent most of my days
As a kid, things seemed
So much brighter back then
And I never had to fake a smile
And the hardest thing I had to do Was ask my mom if I could just stay out a little while longer
I’d dream of leaving
When I all I ever wanted was right here
But the good things, they pass you by And you’re never there when they die
I’ve learned the hardest part of growing up is burying the ones you love
So alone
I can feel it in every inch of my body
In every bone
It’s eating me alive from the inside
An emptiness, I’ll always know
So alone
I can feel it every inch of my bones
It’s eating me alive from the inside
Now I’m sinking down again
Like I do everyday
And god if you’re there, please answer me But you’re not there and I know it So, why do I keep talking to the sky when I’m alone?
