I see these people walking past me

Walking as fast as they can

Trying to make it to the top

Leaving me here alone to stand.

I reach for their hands,

For someone to take hold of mine

But no one even turns to look

At the lonely girl whose abundant tears shine.

I'm left behind,

Stuck in the same place,

Unable to continue this journey

Unable to keep up the pace.

I see familiar faces

For them I also reach

But they care only about themselves

And their simple-minds I cannot breach.

They don't even turn to look,

These people that I once cared for

They were always there for me when I need them

But this was before…

It was before they found greed

And Wickedness who promised lies

Which told them to leave everyone

Out in the cold to die.

And so that's what you've all done

Left me here to die.

Advanced with the empty promises

And have left me here, behind.
