Thought of Mine
I try to make them proud,
I'm too loud.
I don't sleep,
Still counting sheep.
I walk away,
What's the point anyway?
Say I’m always on my phone,
Its to escape this “home”.
Is it too late?,
I want to change my fate?
I’ve learned from my pain,
It's not just a game.
I want a future,
Don't need a preacher.
I tried to escape,
What a mistake.
I saw a light,
Maybe I’ll take flight.
I don't want to make him leave,
But it's just so easy.
