Lately

Lately my mind been so gone
My heart been so cold
The stress through my body
Taking each breath slowly
Its only so much i can hold!

I just want to be left alone
Nobody is understanding me
Ive been feeling so down
Hurting like crazy...

Nobodys there! nobodys to be found!
I could keep trying to push through
But my heart cant take anymore
I dont know what else to do

I lean to reach to the nearest person to me
But they always seem to be busy
I guess thats hard for them to see

But what i watch
It hurts me more than what i can bare
& i smile in yall face
Just to hide it all away

I wanted to be someone one day
But my life wasnt meant to go that way
Now yall see!, heres my life!
& so yall know, this wasnt always me.
