Why Can't That Be Me

Nothing left to say
I'm bored with all the questions
Nothing left to do
But think back in shame
Light has gone away
I lie awake still wrestling
What is fake or true
Is life a lonely game

Nothing left to hide
People love to find it
Deep in lonely thoughts
Stirred up in their brew
Nothing left still shines
People love to hide it
Make known your flaws
No one knows what's true

Remind me of a child
Trusting in the laws
Spotless and protected
Never worried when they fall
Remind me of a child
Ignorant and free
Mind filled up with nothing
Oh why can't that be me

Nothing left to hear
Not that it still matters
Die a hero's death
Maybe then they'll see
Leave the public ear
Leave the pieces shattered
Put the dream to rest
What's it cost to leave

Nothing left to leave
Not that I'd still fight it
Jokers and the clowns
Always have their laugh
Nothing left to read
Even though I write it
Tearing posters down
Leave no aftermath

Remind me of a child
Trusting in the laws
Spotless and protected
Never worried when they fall
Remind me of a child
Ignorant and free
Mind filled up with nothing
Oh why can't that be me
