FADE AWAY

I try to reach out to you, but you're never around
I'm feeling lost and you're never anywhere to be found
You're always making promises you cannot keep
I'm done waiting for you, I'm losing sleep

The reason I lost all respect is because you don't care
I can't pretend anymore - it's starting to wear
Wear at my well-being, where are you right now?
I beat myself up thinking why I'd ever allow this

Looking back now, hindsight is 20-20
I need to start learning to worry about me
Staring blankly down a tunnel was a horrible mistake
The light at the end was enough to give me a headache

Days feel like the pages that I'm flipping through
I'm looking at a towering shelf of blank books that are overdue

The reason I lost all respect is because you don't care
I can't pretend anymore - it's starting to wear
Wear at my well-being where are you right now?
I beat myself up thinking why I'd ever allow this

Waking up and wanting to go back to sleep
The past eight years I've counted so many sheep
So much lack of motivation
Almost a decade of isolation
