Starts with pure confusion, leading to delusion.
Feeling like a failure, I just can’t seem to get a win.
What was nailed upon the door had me falling through the floor.
And I can’t get back up to where I was before.
All of this time, I never questioned my own mind.
Where did it all go wrong?
This is not deja vu.
These moments I will review.
And now I’m trapped inside, the reasons are not clear.
Thoughts running wild fuelling anger and fear.
I’m filled with anger and fear.
How did I end up here?
My life is falling apart. Crushing me. I can’t make sense of it.
I am aware that I am not the only one to have something so good turn out to be so bad.
It’s happened before, and it’ll happen again. Will it ever end?
‘Cause on reflection I see light illuminate what was dark in my life. These tough times can only lead to better days.
Better days.
These tough times only lead to better days.
These are the times that define us
We’re all just hopelessly waiting our turn
It’s like that life’s always bringing me down
But I know there will be lessons to learn
It takes courage and hindsight to see
Whatever will be will be
There’s no such thing as a clean victory
Try to look forward, not at history
I know, I know. Things will work out eventually
I know. I know. Won’t let this black swan destroy me.
