Fallen

With each passing minute
This weight pushes me down
Every time I look around
I’m further in the ground


The harder I try
The farther I fall
Life has brought me to my knees
And I’ve forgotten how to crawl

I climb a rock
The mountain crumbles
I run so far
Then I stumble

Every corner I turn
Brings me to an end
Every person I know
Denies they’re my friend

I sit here and wait
My broken wings won’t fly
I live in this state
Just trying to survive
