Disguised faces, tears that make traces,

Blinding emotions, blinding pain,

Questioning every day, whether I'm sane.

Helping and wishing,

The pain away,

Will I feel this, each and every day?

Life's an illusion;

Not sure what's real,

Not even sure,

Exactly how to feel.

Intrusive thoughts,

Doubting myself, doubting my future,

And everyone else.

Mistreated, misheard,

"As free as a bird,"

The fakest saying I've ever heard.

Like night and day,

Like fire and ice,

Don't get along well,

-Resort to a fight.

Two paths, two roads,

Not sure which way to go,

Doubting and doubting,

My self-worth,

Did I make the right decision,

Or will I end up hurt?

Questioning decisions,

Is it time to turn around?

Oh no, oh, wait, a glimmer of hope,

A sliver, something to cling to, an antidote,

To all my problems, to all my worries,

A small light guides me down this road.

But I was wrong, and now struggling to stay afloat.

Been deceived, been tricked,

And once again,

My self-worth is nicked.

Dented again,

Dented each day,

When is it time,

To finally turn away?
