I am trapped
I feel helpless
My feet cemented to the ground
My voice
I am screaming
But no one is around
I can see my life fading
My world becoming dark
The light was so close
But now its so far
Im stuck in the shadows
Of time and regrets
The earth keeps on turning
No remorse for whats left
Im fighting a war
That has no end
Not a winner or loser
A pointless contest
All hope is lost
Ill never pull through
I keep sinking deeper
If only you knew
The things I had planned
To better my life
I wanted to change
Turn wrong into right
Now its too late
My chance has slipped by
You would have been proud
For once in my life
Im sorry I failed you
I let you down
I was scared and confused
No help to be found
I was searching the wrong places
For reasons and answers
My vision directed
Not forward but backwards
Now it is clear
This battle I fight
Is not one against another
Its just me, myself and I
I watched as I failed
To live up to my dreams
With this realization
I set myself free
The light is returning
To replace the dark
The shadows have gone
To find a new mark
The earth is still spinning
Life will go on
Only now I will join it
And make a new start
