Watching my memory fade,
Watching my life go to waste,
Looking at all I’ve made,
I’m left with this bitter taste,
Does God have a plan for me?
I don’t know what to expect,
Can I ever really be free?
What will my life reflect?
I looked in the mirror today,
I smiled as best I could,
I wish this smile would stay,
I really wish that it would,
As I first saw my reflection,
It frightened me to see,
How I’ve reacted to rejection,
I don’t think I’ll ever be free,
I’ve been locked away too long,
Shut out from everyone,
My life is all so wrong,
But it has just begun,
I’m being reeled in by the bad,
I’ve lost what was once good,
The life that I once had,
No one understood,
How can people ignore,
A person, alone who’s crying,
What are they crying for?
Is it because someone is dying?
No one knows, but no one cares,
They don’t even bother to ask,
No wonder they’re spreading tears,
Time is going by too fast,
One day you will both try,
To stop this fight you’ve made,
But someone has just died,
Now your memories slowly fade,
Life is precious if you haven’t perceived,
But never do we see it as such,
I just hope that you’ll believe,
That this life is never too much…
