The Road Ahead of Me

The road ahead of me Looks rough and hard to travel The road ahead of me Is making me unravel You can never understand If you’re not in my shoes You try to give me a hand But can’t see from my point of view Sometimes even I don’t get it Why I feel this way But I feel like I could just quit Every single day You think I’m just not satisfied But it’s not that With my personality it’s amplified And I just feel bad, bad, bad The road ahead of me Is looking dark and scary The road ahead of me Is far too much to carry I feel what they all feel Multiplied by twenty It’s a win-lose deal Feeling full or empty Being too compassionate Is a sort of problem It can also be quite fortunate But it’s hard when everyone’s watching Sometimes I feel unsatisfied But I don’t think it’s that Everything is amplified And it crushes me flat But it gets easier With a good friend to lean on Suddenly you have a cheerleader Suddenly you feel calm The road ahead of me Is looking brighter now The road ahead of me Is not so lonely now
