I Wish I was Jaded

I wonder if I'll let it go

If I'll ever let it rest

If I'll push myself along the ground

And learn to be without it all

The sadness was an expected thing

That's been stretched so damn thin

But it never snaps or reaches back

It never gives up its tenacity

I've wrote upon it all this time

Nobody reads, nothing's changed

I try to stop but I'm on repeat

You're all sad, just like me

The settings differ but the logic's there

Simple in its common form

I shed some tears and gasp for air

And then I smile like it's nothing

There's nothing here that stands me out

And I guess I wish there was

Because I'm selfish like a child is

And I don't know if I can do it alone.
