Round in circles, fast and slow. Feeling lost, the road winds down. Where it’s headed, no one knows. I wanna escape this town.
I go through the motions and leave out all emotions — anything to erase tears. They say just to stay strong, dear, but what about all my fears? I can’t tell now, what is real?
I stare into my eyes to get past these lies that I see inside. I dig deep to get out a smile, know that I can find that I have survived.
Everywhere I’m feeling numb. Emptiness is the new norm. I keep wondering, what is wrong? It’s just words I cannot form.
What to do? Just fit in. Go out and fake a grin — just divert all attention. But inside I’m just broken. You feel all my tension. I can’t keep holding in the fact.
Then you look into my eyes and see past these lies that I hide inside. You pull me to get out in life, continue on the fight so I feel alive.
