For Now
For Now
I am for now doing what I can
Nobody knowing about my real plan....
For now I will try to survive....
Even if nothing inside of me is alive....
I just keep going and pretend....
Finally seeing my pain coming to an end....
Please don’t cry for me....
I am better off you will see....
Don’t ever doubt I love you all....
My mind and soul can’t handle another fall....
For now I go through life feeling numb....
I may be slow at times but I’m not dumb....
I know who really loved me with no conditions....
And who pulled me through hard situations....
I want to really thank all of you....
And say sorry for now what I must do....
