Slowly

Feeling so small in this room,
Losing your heart in what you do,
Killing time because you're hurt,
Mourning in the morning
That's all you do,
Waiting till day turns to night,
Staying the same, hating to move,
Afraid to see past your fears,
You will do anything not to be alone,
When everyone is enjoying life
You will stay home and ponder more,
Fragile sense, fragile being,
Closer and closer, but further and further,
Turning around hoping for change,
But when you hope for something
Nothing changes,
When you hope for happiness
All you get is hate.

Feeling so small among your friends,
Losing yourself in your meds,
Prolonging time staring at the mirror,
Contemplating every decision,
You think so low of yourself,
The will to do, the will to persevere,
But you cling on hope
Like you cling on hate,
Everyone wants to help,
But you're hating yourself
You're stuck in a mess,
Feeling so small when you're down.

Everything's alright,
Things will get better,
The water in your eyes,
But he's holding on to you
Letting you know everything will be fine,
Chin up, stand straight,
The look of defeat
That was moments ago,
Holding your hand until you feel better,
Be who you are,
Don't let others push you around,
Don't get down on yourself
You are better than that,
It's alright to be afraid,
It's alright to feel lost,
But don't feel like you're nothing.
