I try and try            
But just fall shy      
I say I’m Strong      
But tend to cry      

I’m not enough      
And yet too much      
These pills I take      
Are just a crutch      

They’re changing me      
Oh can’t you see      
This hearts a mold      
Without a plea      

This mold is dim      
A flicker lights      
The dark sweeps in      
How hard it fights      

My heart it beats      
And then repeats      
But oh so slow      
It gently seeps      

Into the ground      ...
