One step forward Two steps back I'm losing footing I'm losing tact On unstable ground At least I've claimed my plot Before they lay me back down Everything is changing while I stay the same And it feels like I'm waking up to the same day It's the same old story, The same old place, same old room where I spent most of my days As a kid, things seemed so much brighter back then And I never had to fake a smile And the hardest thing I had to do was ask my Mom if I could just stay out a little while longer I'd dream of leaving when all I ever wanted was right here But the good things, they pass you by And you're never there when they die I've learned the hardest part of Growing up is burying the ones you love So alone I can feel it in every inch of my body, in every bone It's eating me alive from the inside An emptiness, I'll always know So alone I can feel it every inch of my bones It's eating me alive from the inside Now I'm sinking down again like I do every day And god if you're there, please answer me But you're not there and I know it So why do I keep talking to the sky when I'm alone here?
