All around me are familiar faces
Worn out places, worn out faces
Bright and early for their daily races
Going nowhere, going nowhere
Sitting in my room, everythings a heartbeat. The cold, the silence, it made me shiver and cringe in that little corner. I hear the words that were spoken by so many people over the years. I see how their faces twist and turn with every emotion. They look so distressed. I want to feel happy and feel that sunshine on my face when there wasn't even a care in the world. That things happened the way mom and dad said they would turn out to be. That there's always a happy ending. That we as children were the ones that brought joy to the entire world. But...
What happnes when we are not children anymore? What becomes of us? Bundles of endless hope, shattered dreams, mysterious sadness, imitations of happiness, a hurtful reminder to the ones that made us this way.
Their tears are filling up their glasses
No expression, no expression
Hide my head I want to drown my sorrow
No tomorrow, no tomorrow
I'm alone in this dark place, shaking in fear, looking out at very scary people. They move so fast, they care for no one. They rush by like there's nothing in their way. How do I even get in? I'm scared to go back in. She used to tell me it would be alright to stay away for a bit. That I needed it. But why are they like this?
And I find it kinda funny
I find it kinda sad
The dreams in which I'm dying
Are the best I've ever had
They're not moving now. They're just vanishing into themselves. What are they? What am I? Where am I? Mother? Where am I? Why did you leave me all alone? I cry in my sleep, hiding under the covers, I hope tomorrow brings a better day. You promised.....
I find it hard to tell you
I find it hard to take
When people run in circles
It's a very, very mad world mad world
I can't find anyone to help me! Can you help me? Mother left me all alone. I don't know where I am. I'm lost. I need you. I....I don't understand. I tried to get back. But they aren't here anymore. Mother? Is that you? Someone?
Help me?
No one knows me...no one knew me.....
