Drifting away to nothingness
In failure, I’ve succumb
And I count the passing moments
Wondering who have I become

My soul lost to ambivalence
Confused, I watch it fade
In the end it claims my innocence
Now I’m alone, afraid, betrayed

I’m becoming less than who I was
So much less than I could be
Drowning in my fear of failure
In my attempt to wade the sea

Should I allow myself to slip away
Free from worry of regret
Could I allow myself to fade
And take the risk that you’ll forget

I’m wondering how I might get back again
To the place I started from
The roads I take are all dead ends
And this life has left me numb
