You thought one day you'd be number one
Now you're there thinking, just how dumb
To think you can raise the bar so high
Starting to believe you can fly
Then you realised deep within
There was nothing, the air too thin
You fell hard back down to Earth
And realised you have no worth
How do you pick yourself up again
Live in life as you live by the pen
Make people see you feel that hurt
Of every day being someone's dirt
You don't know how they can hear
Yet never see through to the fear
They believe in the front so much
The surface is all they ever touch
You are doomed to a life alone
Misunderstood, not another drone
You can't see or talk like they all do
So instead you melt and hope they do too
The days get longer and you get weaker
You have less fight and become meeker
You stop trying to get them to see
Instead you lay down and let things be
You never again try to understand
You believe to them you are too bland
Something that doesn't suit their taste
So you do something silly in haste
One part hopes the pain will die
The other hopes life will show why
One day you will find the reasoning
One day, one day
