I’m through fighting.

I try and change what’s going on,

and what does it get me?

Nothing, absolutely nothing and I’m tired of it.

Nobody understands and nobody wants to.

No one else is trying, so why should I?

They each tell me the other is crazy.

I think they should both just be quiet.

It gets so loud, and I can’t stand it.

They talk about love, yet I see none surrounding me.

I want to leave…oh how I want to leave.

But something always stops me.

Perhaps it’s the hope that maybe tomorrow things will change,

that my life will go back to the way it used to be.

But my life is just a veil of lies

that’s trying to shield my eyes from the truth.

It’s been nothing but a cheap charade,

a pathetic attempt to obtain something that will never be mine.

This was never life, and nobody has tried to convince me otherwise.

This battle has been fought and lost.

It isn’t life, it’s a prison, and it’s keeping me here…but no longer.

It’s over and I’m done with it.
