What am I? Am I a person or just
something you can play with?
Am I here or am I there?
In your eyes I’m a nobody, a mere toy.
Something to give hope and joy,
and then push him away when something better comes along.
Something to break and throw away like he’s trash.
You keep pulling my strings, playing me like a puppet,
but I’m more than that. Because every time I break, I turn right around
and I’m better than the old me. I’m braver, stronger, won’t take shit from anyone.
You see, because of you I’ve put up walls that I can’t break down.
I’m at the bottom of the barrel and there’s no way I’m coming up.
Because every time I try there’s always someone or something to drag me back down to where
I belong.
Cause I’m a nobody. A worthless piece of shit, waiting to get hurt again.
I’m a closed book that nobody wants to read. I’ve been broken, thrown away, dragged down.
But all of this is because of you, I loved you but now all you see is an empty shell of the man
I used to be. Alone and confused, a nobody.
So in your mind I maybe a nobody, but in mine I know that I’m
Bound for Glory.
