Now Here: Nowhere

They move their mouths
The words come out
They're talking now
But not to me
I try so hard not to try
I guess that's what we all do until we die

I run along the silver shore
And scream for something, something more
But eventually my legs get sore,
And still, there's nothing there
I try so hard not to try
And it all just feels like the biggest lie

But every moment's pain
And there's no escape
And it's no one's fault
There's just me to blame
And I hate this mind
And I hate its cage
And I just want to break out and get away

To nowhere
Blank room
White walls

I'm losing touch
With everyone
I feel so much
Like I'm lost at sea
And no one cares
They're completely unaware

With each new day
There's less to say
"Yeah, I'm okay
Thanks for asking
How have you been"
And then I do it again

But I tear me up
And watch me bleed
I don't care how
It's all I need
I need some love
To clear the air
But nothing's real
So now I'm here: nowhere
