Unacquainted

Life for me is going so wrong
And all the time
Every day there’s bad news
This sickening pain, I’m sick of this pain
There must’ve been something I did
Here, I’ve cast out my pearls among pigs
Was all my worrying in vain?
Forget the future, I need to focus on now
It only takes a little more than simple vow

This world
It is grown on me
It encompasses my darkening shadow
And brings forth pain and suffering
You got no clue how bad it is
You have no idea what I’ve been through
Not just on the outside world, but in my own world
The walls of my security came tumbling down
And I began to drown
Falling down, to the very bottom, could I ever earn my crown?

No
I know my place
As I keep falling
I am reaching the end
Each day I am aware
I am getting closer and closer to the end
Oh, it’s such a tragedy that I must participate in this
This falling cycle, called my life
Where in the end it all goes away
But I would be faced with all my fear
Overwhelmed, I would beg you to wake me from this dream
Somewhere, somehow, I know, that I have purpose here
But my time will soon run out
And, oh, oh how I dreadfully dear that day
I would give up my heart to stop that day
From ever even reaching me
And I can’t bear this relentless fear and anguish any longer
No, no more, not any longer
It’s driving me insane
