Complicated souls
January 27, 2013
All the choices I'm making
They complicate my mind
All these chances I'm taking
My success has been fined
I think of all the people
the lives they're leading on
Some sliding down the pole
Some just as they had drawn
I tell them all I care
'Leave insecurities behind'
I promise, no, I swear
I never press rewind
I don't know if they believe
They can't accept my claim
It's easier to grieve
The guilt that fueled the shame
I think of all the people
Who complicate their minds
Some have lost their soul
I think I'm losing mine
