What Am I Now?

The walls are closing in

The oxygen is running out

I can hardly breath

A cruel world weighing down

On my lunges, crushing them

Tears sting my eyes

As my life flashes before them

This is it

I'll perish alone

No future, no one

They left and I feel empty

My sadness surpassing

The very depth of the ocean

What am I now?

Empty, crushed, lonely

Broken, hurt, depressed, alone

I am nothing but a memory

Keep me there

Because you'll no longer

Remember me once I'm gone

I'm drowning

In my own ocean of tears

Every time I swim to the sun

I sink farther down

People pulled me down with them

I felt insignificant

And I feel like that more than ever

I'll shut them out

If I'm alone

At least I can't get hurt
