Broken world, broken me.

 Time spent criticising

Look inside this soul

If you wanted to

At a glance

Would I move you?

Why, it doesn’t move me

Don’t feel this anymore

Days spent holding on

God knows I’m not that strong

Gripping the edge of my reality

Means nothing to me

The right to crucify

Deny me my destiny

I shall not complain, anticipating,

Waiting for the sun to shine

Am I happy, are you happy

Am I lonely?

Can take anymore, who shall I turn to?

Who do you run to?

Everyone is wrapped up in self-pity

Self-containment

Self, self, self

Yes even me

Especially me

Reach out, hold another’s hand

Hug the broken heart I hold

The world so empty, people rushing by

No-one stops to see the little children cry

If I had the strength, I would hold the earth

Change the tide of the wildest sea

Take away all pain and misery

But how can I change the world

When I can’t even see me!
