My mind in a jumble, no direction to it all. I thought myself on a path but realized it's nothing at all. A hope and a dream, whispered in the night. The only ones who hear, me, myself and I. Banging my drum to the beat of my heart, out of step and out of tune the band marches past. Lost and confused, more steps taken. Same road, same road, where is the off ramp. Wheels still turning with nowhere to go. I cry out in pain, lost in the noise, I beat my drum. Hope upon hopes I rest my future. Believe in myself, I try. The pain makes it hard. You're doin fine, it's all I hear, yet in realities bubble, silence. How to match the facts with what I dream. My dream no more but was it ever. So lost am I I could not say. My mind a mess my heart a wreck and yet I must...what? I'm at that point to question it all
