Why today

Why this year

Why was it I

That was engulfed by the fear


The fear of failing

The fear of regret

The fear of being

Forever in debt


In debt to my friends

For the scary life that I chose

To all those close

For the fear I impose


The endless screams

The endless fear

The endless feeling

Wishing you could disappear


Walking down this path

Walking through this life

Walking into the blackness

Where there never is light


As my heart is heavy

As my heart is weak

Burdened by the scars

The hope I hopelessly seek


The hope is not there

The hope is long gone

The hope that I longed for

Has forever passed on


I try and I try

To right all my wrongs

To make things better

But I keep playing along
