well I'm sorry, I'm not a quitter
So I'm waiting for this task to end,
so that lighter days can soon begin;
I'll be alone, but maybe more carefree,
Like a kite that floats so effortlessly;
I was afraid to be alone,
but now I'm scared that's how I like to be;
All these faces run the same,
how can there be so many personalities?
So many lifeless, empty hands,
so many hearts in great demand;
and now my sorrow seems so far away,
until I'm taken by these bolts of pain;
But I turn them off, and tuck them away,
until those rainy days that make them stay;
And then I'll cry so hard to these sad songs,
and the words still ring, once here, now gone;
And they echo through my head everyday,
and I don't think they'll ever go away;
Just like thinking of your childhood home,
but we can't go back, we're on our own;
But I'm about to give this one more shot,
And find it in myself, I'll find it in myself;
So we're speeding towards that time of year,
to the day that marks that you're not here;
And I think I'll want to be alone,
so please understand that I don't answer the phone;
I'll just sit and stare at my deep blue walls,
until I can see nothing at all;
Only particles, some fast, some slow,
all my eyes can see is all I know;
But I'm about to give this one more shot,
And find it in myself, I'll find it in myself;
