Just called "Untitled."
It's four years later, I'm still reading the same lines
I'm getting older and tired of this state of mind
Flowers grow, children learn....but I don't
Seasons change, things move on...but I don't
It's a cold day
These shackles were built to last
It's a cold night
But that's how it goes
December's coming up fast
So much time and I've got nothing to show
Letting myself down, and not letting go
I'm bare and I'm naked, and I think I'm really bruised
Excuse me if I stutter, vulnerability is something I'm not used to
Flowers will grow, children will learn...but I won't
Seasons will change, things will move on...but I won't
It's an empty life
I pushed out everything worth loving
Silence cuts me like a knife
It isn't worth the pain it brings
So much time and I've got nothing to show
Letting myself down, and not letting go
So much time but I've got nothing to do
So much time and it's just me in this room
And if I've got one thing to say
It's sorry to myself for living this way
And oh, they've gotta know it's a lie when I say I don't care
So much time, I gave it all away
Let myself down and I'm so ashamed
Mother, I know you were right
Those words you said burned a whole in my mind
Unprepared for confrontation, it was a scary conversation
You know my favorite thing is to run and hide
So much time, I threw it all away
Gave in to fear and lost myself along the way
(P.S. sorry it's so long!)
