I'm still left waiting on the call
since I can't fall farther from this
than my expectations hover me
far safer for now to force hopes low
time to the second hand it slows
with shallower options, moments stretch left uncontrolled
I keep drifting further from the
life where you first discovered me
I can barely remember, truth be told
but safe in the space between the sheets, unguarded sleep
I can almost allow myself to dream, to almost see better things
Will I be stronger for this, well I suppose
Is simple survival worth this, well I suppose
When will I make it through this well, I can't know
will I before it breaks me, well I suppose, I suppose
Are these shifts in me to stay?
beneath the surface where I held sway, to change my life
maintaining this silent progress
with saccharine smiles surrounding me
might previous gains just leave me cold
following everything I know, or think I know
still, I'm falling short of every goal
Will I be stronger for this, well I suppose
Is simple survival worth this, well I suppose
When will I make it through this well, I can't know
will I before it breaks me, well I suppose, I suppose
How do you save me,
how do you keep finding ways to be enough
