Can't Breathe

Can’t breathe
Trapped within this life
One they want me to live
Forced to be someone I’m not
Just to please others
Longing to show the real me
Filled with wonder and fright
Fear is now my sleeve
Woe makes up my window
Sorrow composes my eyes
Lying down with a broken dream
Screaming to myself
I wonder what love feels like
Is it warmer than my blood
Or colder than my heart
Time is growing short
Like people falling to their knees
Life is an unhappy song
I wish not to sing
Another pain I carry
Another heavy load
Can’t breathe
Don’t want to
