I don't belong
Forward or backward
I'm not sure which way I'm going.
I'm a hero now,
but all I feel like is a loner.
I don't belong here.
This place use to be my home,
but now it's just a dead building.
I walk through hallways
that use to scream my name,
but they're silent.
I walk through classrooms
where I had pulled myself to the top,
but it was obvious I no longer reigned.
I didn't want to know,
but too late I already knew.
The message was loud and clear.
I don't belong here.
My friends and I use to be so close.
Now it's awkward conversations.
I push them away
because I don't deserve them.
My world drops on top of me.
I crash and burn.
It's too late to save me.
I'm already gone.
You ask yourself,
why did this happen to me.
The answer is simple and obvious.
