Standing On the Wrong Side of Hope
always seem to be standing on the wrong side of hope
looking for the right seems wrong
slowly climbing to the bottom
on the shoulders of losers
sorry slips my lips
as easy as breath
the itch scratches at me
understanding the nothing more
grasping at stars from the floor
no comforting the dead
trapped within my head
