Left Behind

Pacified by pressure

I feel it all the time

Anxiety is measured

In these thin fine lines

Nothing seems to fix this

And still I wonder why

Frantically I'm trying but

Nothing is enough

I've fooled you enough

But do you understand

The power of change

Wasn't always in my hands

And I can't change

Into

The man I want to be

My mind is a warzone

Nothing is enough

I'm in the trenches

Digging my own grave

I feared for a long time

To break free of the chains

A plunge into the deep

With no sight of the bottom

I dont know where it leads

But i have to release

These chains that buried me

I can't wait forever and watch myself bleed

I won't give in until my last hearbeat

I won't let myself be left behind

I feared for long to break these chains

I don't feel anger

I don't feel sad

All worry inside me

Has been laid to rest

I've left behind that part of me

Buried deep

To never grow again

I've left behind that part of me
