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
