The Corner I painted myself into

My skills are all busted, disjointed and frayed
What the fuck was I thinkin', just frozen and 'fraid

Don't think I'm alone, there's many like me
Don't make the right choices, confused every day
I stumble and stagger, no focus or drive

I was told as a child of where I could be

but it's just not that easy, when life, it unfolds
This way & that way, up ways and down ways, each leaves it's own mark
How much can I carry, what's expected of me
I'm haunted each morning and night before bed
I'm restless and bored and ponder the dread


I remember the ghosts of my youth

Don't think I'm alone, there's many like me
Don't make the right choices, confused every day
I stumble and stagger, no focus or drive

I'm not at where I was told I could be and I fear it's to late
I'm stuck in the corner I've painted myself


Don't think I'm alone, there's many like me
Don't make the right choices, confused every day
I stumble and stagger, no focus or drive


I'm not at where I was told I could be
I'm stuck in the corner I've painted myself
