Staring at the bottom

What happened to me, what was it I didn't see
I don't want to believe this is how it's going to be
I have lost something that I probably never had
But I know I have never missed anything this bad
Is it just me or could it be true life let me down
Pushed me, and left me bruised on the ground
Something deep inside me started changing
Could it ever be possible for me to like living
I'm standing at the edge staring at the bottom
Seeing my vulnerabilities but I can't solve them
Tell me how to let go of my fear for the future
What can I do I used to hide pain with humor
Nobody ever heard me or did I forget to speak
Scared to be a burden, I thought I was too weak
Tied a knot on my heart and painted on a smile
It seemed to work for me, but only for a while
If only I hadn't ever learnt what hurt meant
Go back to when playing was the only content
I am looking at myself from the outside crying
What I have seen in my entire life is terrifying
