Being Left Behind

V5.5

You are strong, you are strong Every time, I drift off I keep running, keep running I can’t stop, I can’t stop Slip through the cracks between everyone Douse every flame, then I run on Only these nameless tasks and roles I play Even so I forced myself this way This strange feeling, thoughts are spinning Only panic lingers on Jokes that never make me laugh keep piling on I was sure I wasn’t wrong So I kept on running hard Faster than the rest of them I have made it all this far There is not a single sign Telling me that I should stop Still somehow I’m out of line Crying while I try to find a reason Never knowing what I did so wrong Every careful word they lay before me None of them could settle in my heart “Someday it will help you” “Just the next step” I don’t care at all! Thought I’d finally seen a glimpse of something Now it feels like everything’s reset Pretty words are ringing from a distance In my world they never mean a thing I was supposed to be right Tell me what I’m missing now All the things I thought I’d built up high Fade away without a name somehow I say I’ll be fine, I must face ahead I say I can do it, still do it yet The more I repeat “I’m fine, I’m okay” Something deep inside begins to strain Even so I know that I must move on Acting like I haven’t yet gone wrong I have been fighting with all I have Every layer I stacked up so hard! Nothing will be left here inside of me! I am left with absolutely nothing!! I’m being left behind…
