self fulfilling prophecy
Why do I always do this to myself
Why do I always try and fix people who are broken
When I am still broken myself
Why cant I stand up for myself
Even after being trampled on day in and day out
Have I lost control of my feet?
When in drought why do I water my garden
Instead of quenching my thirst
my flowers and crops get stepped on anyway
When will I not be destined for doom
Even when I try to lead myself to the light
Gloomy darkness always comes
Why do I always try and fix people who are broken
When I am still broken myself
Why cant I stand up for myself
Even after being trampled on day in and day out
Have I lost control of my feet?
When in drought why do I water my garden
Instead of quenching my thirst
my flowers and crops get stepped on anyway
When will I not be destined for doom
Even when I try to lead myself to the light
Gloomy darkness always comes
