The world is full of color
But I’m stuck in gray
Why can’t I be free from this torture
Why can’t I just get away
The feeling is deep inside me
It’s spreading like disease
Not knowing when it will take over
Not knowing when I will cease
Will I just live on
An empty face in the crowd
Will I never
Have my voice heard aloud
And maybe I don’t
Matter at all
And if I don’t then
Let me take the fall
I feel like a monster
Like I shouldn’t exist
Like a horrible person
And yet still I exist
Why can’t life just leave me
A final breath, a goodbye
Maybe it would be better
If I just withered and died
Will I just live on
An empty face in the crowd
Will I never
Have my voice heard aloud
And maybe I don’t
Matter at all
And if I don’t then
Let me take the fall
Maybe life’s just not my thing
Or maybe nobody cares
The fact that anyone pays true attention
Is something I hate to call rare
Will they just ridicule me
Or even offer to help
When they know they can never truly help me
And I can’t help myself
