Alone in a crowd
That guilty feeling
Built up inside
You need to say sorry
Swallow your pride
Flowing with anger
Emotions uncontrolled
Lays heavy on my conscience
Feel I may explode
Feel so all alone
Surrounded by people I love
I'd do anything in the world for them
When push comes down to shove
Unhappy with myself
Not flowing with hopes and dreams
I've simple become another cog in the wheel
Or at least that's how it seems
If tomorrow brought opportunity
To pursue anything I wanted
I don't even know what that would be
My ambitions are now haunted
Struggle to find my way
Need to learn to love myself
Never achieved any major goals
Never aquired any wealth
Full of insecurities
Don't feel I do much right
So goddamn exhausted
Still can't sleep at night
Years behind my friends
Their children all have grown
Married now and children themselves
Buying homes of their own
Have nothing to my name
A few belongings and a car
Feel so unacomplished
I'll never be a star
My light is very faded
One may say extinguished
Never will I be famous
Admired or distinguished
