Summer 93

The sun rising and setting
And I can't keep up with the tides
Ten years in the blink of an eye

So much has changed
Scared of my own age
Scared of things staying the same
Or my youth just slipping away

Endless need to improve
Feels like I'll never be enough
But what's inherently wrong with being myself?

All this time I've kept things inside
Not vulnerable enough to confide
But it's exhausting trying to constantly hide
An ego shielded by pride

Sometimes I wanna, I wanna go back
Be back in my old habitat
But even home ain't like it used to be

Lately my head is filled with noise
That drowns out the sound of your voice
Slowly slipping into the void

I find myself lost amongst the clouds
Crystal clear to a haze of doubt
And now my head is fuzz and everything's spinning around

This life's making less sense each day
Time rapidly slipping away
Every day looks the same
And I can't feel a thing

It's all so complex and I don't know where to go next
But I can't sit still and swallow all of my dreams
Or this world will swallow me
I hope one day it'll all make sense
