Bound

Eternally bound
Watch me plummet to the ground
Watch the world spin round
My feelings falling down

Alone in this
No one is here to stop me
Never able to understand
Not able to understand myself 

Where have I gone
The girl I once was
Cast away
Lost in the shadows

Taken over by me
A girl I don’t know
Wondering who I am
And where I’m meant to go

Who will I become?
Will I be anything at all?
Do I even want to be?
I make everything go wrong

Think of the world
Like there is no tomorrow
Everything would change
Take away my sorrow

But tomorrow 
always comes
Threatening me with anger
Losing me in the path
Of a life that isn’t here

Where do I go now?
Can anybody save me
Would you want to if you could
Or am I not worth saving?

For me, I’m not sure
Broken, sad
Unable to go back
To the life I used to have

Abandoned, alone
Nowhere else to go
Stuck here
My life has been overthrown
