Alone

Why

Seems like it always comes back to you.

But what am I doing here baby?

Cuz you don’t want me either.

I’ve learned to stand my ground,

Not let anyone push me around.

It’s so far from where I’ve come,

But I’m still never the one.

I feel this war inside me;

Why can’t I have it all?

Why is it the better I am for me,

The further it feels I fall?

Why does no one stay?

Why can’t I have peace AND love?

Why is my heart never enough?

Why doesn’t anyone want it?

Will I always be too much?

These questions never leave me

And all I want is someone to see me.

I’m drowning in the dark,

Alone and lost,

Waiting for that spark…
