When Nothing Feels Right
I always wish I had a very dull life
I think anyone else would
When things are not right
All of it drawn on your face
That has become shallow and tight
Mostly your eyes turning to space
Becoming black holes of the night
Darkness in our eyes shows
How hollow we are
If anyone cares, nobody knows
Everyone has gone too far
And all you really would want
Is some sleep tonight as you are
And for once feel your life
Is not always a race
I would believe anyone
Would want a much easier simpler life
Things it always seems, even your dreams
Just are not right
And I know I am not the only one
Wishing for a better life
So I won’t ever be angry
And the only person I hurt
Will be myself again tonight
