I Can No More Be

I am down under And I haven’t the lights to see Minds deserving better This world I can no more be The helping hand was beyond my grasp And I am to reach out to nothing There were maybes only and perhaps How am I ever amount to anything? Closer and closer they were driven from Further and further they all appeared Just when I belong they are all gone Happier was I to have known I’ve feared And the world shall never know The world itself didn’t have to Nothing more to the world I’ll show When in the world I’m lesser then few Was I down under? Is there still a light to see? Do I deserve better? When this world I can no more be
