Lost
Just give me the strength and show me the way
To know that everything will be okay
I feel lost in the world without a purpose
Need to get back on track to no longer feel worthless
The days pass me by I see friends moving on
I sit in the house thinking how things would be if I was gone
Shadows creeping into my mind that were once locked away
My happiness fades as the sadness grows day by day
Only a sliver of hope only a speck of light
That makes this struggle worth the fight
Worried I’m not good enough or deserve the best
So much weight I carry on my shoulders and in my chest
My heart is heavy and my brain is being drained
Life if tough but this feeling I keep maintained
I drift away into music I tried religion
I still couldn’t find the right answers to my decision
How do I move on when I can’t find the first step
Back into my mind those dark ideas crept
As I hold on to that sliver of hope and light
I still stand ready for another day and a battle to fight
