Stuck in the past
The future is too open ended
I can't miss something that never existed, so I'll keep persisting
The outcomes don't always go my way
I still can't cover them, and make them gray
The outcomes don't always go by may
I will let decisions lie where they may
When I blur the lines I don't have to focus
Shrug my shoulders
That's just how it goes, I guess
Diving headfirst into indifference, I'll take on everything over feeling anything
Positive impacts are meaningless if I don't tolerate the pain of the negative
Something I had to learn was how to show care and concern
You won't hear that your plea will never be
I'm shaken to the core and paralyzed by reality
I'll curl up and hide inside
This is my shelter to escape in
In here I disappear, where there is no fear
Stuck in the past
The future is too open ended
I can't miss something that never existed
I never thought I'd have it inside to decide what is right for myself
Proof of this selfishness that won't leave
Crushing until we can't breath
It's grip held firm
One day it lets go
I need you to forgive me
