Outside

looking in on the laughter and the smiles

knowing alone as i am across the miles

so far away from who i am who i will be

always knowing always be alone with me

faces lose focus voices lose their sound

are they watching me as i look around

 

(the bodies are going out of focus now

everyone is just a blur and i laugh

now everyone is the same

what would they say to that)

 

try to laugh but I can\'t breathe

fear pushes up from beneath

the room has grown too bright

something is wrong something isn\'t right

i swim through the ocean of my thoughts

filled with should have and should have not

 

i

am

drowning

 

one long breath deeply taken

soul is torn battered and shaken

do they know i don\'t belong

i came here hoping but i was wrong

i know now again that i should go

yes i think that they do know
