Tired of being confined

In this stupid little world

Where everyone tells me lies

Instead of the truth I need

Why must my every action

Be critiqued by my parents

And why does society

Try to tell me how to fit in

Everyone I know

Tries to tell me who to be

And everything I believe

Apparently means nothing

My dreams are being shattered

By those who say they care

But why can’t they support me

Rather than cause me more despair

All these unanswered questions

Continue to fill my mind

As everyone moves forward

Leaving me behind

I know it may sound childish

But I just can’t give up my dreams

They’re all I have left to hold onto

No matter how together I seem
