Empty room

Im sitting in this empty room

kind of stuck inside this mess of a mind

i've lost too many pieces of myself 

and i've lost time, or is it all just too hard to find

I'm sitting inside this empty room 

and seems to grow emptier by the minute

things that seems so important 

no longer matter, from the start i new i blew it 

i'm sitting inside this empty room

and the walls seems to grow thinner and thinner

the life that ones was full and sweet is starting to taste a little bitter

im sitting inside this empty room

stuck inside this mind of a cocoon

everything around me is so big 

i can only think the  small

i was expect to rise but everyone saw the fall

im stuck inside this room so heartless

missing the hands that once fed me love

but i guess i bit it too much till i bid it enough

im stuck inside this room of nothing, vanity

everyone wanted something better i caved to insanity

frailty 

this wasn't what everyone expected of me

but here i am, failing everyone's expectations

calling for sombody's help and directions 

but the somebody's that I ones had

had finally reached their end because i pushed to far, isn't that sad?

So i'm sitting inside this empty room which is a little to crowded 

im trying to find it all, but everything is a little clouded

the life that was not too long ago is simply out of reach

i should have learned from the mistakes of others but i guess it's my turn to teach 

so heres a few words of wisdom, to all you young ones out there

always love respect and listen to the people around you who love and care 

because there will come a point, if you push too far, they'll have enough

and that, my young ones, is when it really gets too tough.

don't wait for that moment where you have to sit in a room alone and think

because the thinking that you'll have will slowly suffocate your heart 

as in the sea of hopelessness you slowly sink.
