Choices
Sometimes things are not easy
Tough choices to make
Difficult obstacles to overcome
People you have to like
And it never seems to make a difference
What option I choose
Because it comes to the same conclusion
I picked the wrong one
They reprimand me
For the things I cannot control
Things I couldn't contain
But they blame me anyways
I tire of what my life holds for me
Tire of the decisions I am forced to choose
I don't want influence
I want guidence
But if influence is all I get
Then let me decide
Don't choose for me
Let me choose for myself
So parents and teachers
Friends and strangers
Leave me be
I dont want your advice
I don't want what you try to give me
I only want peace and sanity
Try to understand
I need to be alone
So I say that I love you
With all of my heart
But I leave you now
Goodbye
