A Place For Me

I observe the tapestry of life Consumed by all of this strife I tried to raise the wall Only to watch it fall They told me it's over As I battled to stay sober But why am I so lost And what is the cost I'm in the Hell of my own mind Like a stranger I've yet to find But if I were to truly fail Would my haters hail So I get up again and smile Knowing it all goes to hell after awhile But I just want to be fine again No longer burdened by sin I threaded through thoughts I saw the discord it brought So I took scissors and cut my ties Unraveling a bevy of my own lies I may have never had a plan But I wanted to be more of a man So as my life goes on replay I wonder if I'll again be okay From the best came the worst And I feel my heart begin to burst But see it's all in my head And it wants to leave me dead So I observe the tapestry of life Consumed by all this strife I genuinely just want to be free And finally find a place for me
