Nothing

I'm not anyone gifted
I'm not anyone with massive talent
I'm not a hero to others
Nobody sees me as gallant

I'm not a soldier you can rely on
I'm not a savior in your dreams
I'm not a friend you can talk to
I'm not someone you pick for teams

I'm not a warrior that fights in battle
I'm not a doctor who saves lives
I'm not a farmer who grows crops
I'm not a package that arrives

I'm not a light to chase
I'm not a star in the sky
I'm not a part of history
I'll be forgotten as time goes by

I'm not a man you can love
I'm not a man you can believe in
I'm not a man who will be there
I'm a man flawed in sin

I'm not a thing to die for
I'm not a life to save
I'm not a thought to remember
I'm not any name on a grave

You don't know who I am
You don't know what I've had to do
You don't know where I've been
You don't know the shit I've been through

I'm just a story that you were told
I'm a myth that you laughed at
I'm the news that you glanced over
I'm not this I'm just that

I'm a shadow that leaves
I'm a mirror that cracks
I'm the sun that hides
I'm the train that leaves the tracks

You might see me as nothing
You might know me as useless
You might see me as a disappointment
I'm trying to find my way but I'm just clueless

I'm just a little bug that you smash
I'm just a toy you throw away
I'm just clothes you give up
I'm not anything you want to say
