I guess this is what I deserve
To have everything fall apart at once
Just curl up in a ball
And let the world have its way
I’ve fought so long for what I wanted
That I was starting to think I might get it
Silly me
I can’t stay optimistic for long
Without some backlash
I’m done, okay?
I’ll just go through the motions
Live the sad, depressing life
This world has given me
There’s just no self-improvement
No way to get ahead
Just stumbling blocks and crushing weights
There to keep me knocked down
It’s not enough for me
To make my own mistakes
Lord knows those are plenty
But no, I might be able to overcome those
So let’s make sure there are roadbkicks
Around every corner
So that I may just keep tripping
And falling
And eventually just give up and stay down
Well, rest assured I’m staying down now.
