Do you know who you are yet?

Do you live your life in regret?

Have you found yourself?

Or do you hide yourself?

I'm an open book with a few pages ripped out.

Why can't I be closed?

Why am I full of doubt?

Why do I get mad at myself for making mistakes?

Why can't life give people a break?

Why do I fail at everything?

Life is like a boxing ring.

Dodging up, down, left, and right.

Do you know how to win this fight?

My life is kind of boring.

I feel like I do nothing.

When I do something fun,

I don't feel like I've won.

This is why I want to learn to give up some hope.

To me hope is like a downhill slope.

Everytime I bring my hopes up,

I ask myself, "Should I give it up?"

Am I lurking for attention?

Do I have too much tension?

Am I really that bad?

Maybe I should be glad.

My life is'nt horrible.

At least it's affordable.

But this is why I don't have confidence in myself.
