I feel polar opposite of everyone else
I’m a statue on a pillar, watching the world pass by
One day I thought to myself…why are we here?
This question makes me listless
No less, growing relentless
I feel stone cold
This feeling of dread and regret
Only grows more while stuck on this parapet
I look up to the sky every night
Wondering why
God, answer me…I NEED YOU TO TRY
Help me out of this purgatory some call life
I cry while I try to understand this strife
I drive the knife into where my heart should be
Maybe in another lifetime I will see the real me
