Cracks in my foundation
Account for the shifts
In my heart

There is so much to be
Overwhelmed by that
I don't know where to start

I just sit
Watching the walls crumble
Watching the regrets pile up
Wanting to move in some direction
But unable to decide which way
To go

Trying to bring myself up
But feeling the pressure
To stay down
To pull back in
To stay away from anything
That could cause me pain
Or any feeling at all

This is it, then
This is the rest of my life
I'll go through it numbly
And find ways to pretend
That I am still alright
And that I will always be
And hope that no one ever see
The cracks in my foundation.
