"My Future" by Nic Searcy


Deep inside
Underneath layers of grief and pain
Left untied
Wandering through the void of my mind
Looking right
Knowing my deepest fears, coldest day
Future sight
What does my tomorrow bring for me?

Chorus:
-----------------------------------------------
Why oh why
Does my yesterday melt away?
Where oh where
Do I go, can I go from here?
What is this
Emptyness in me, no escape
How oh how
Does my future ever make sense?
-----------------------------------------------

Vision blind
Cannot see, history will repeat
Understand
Can't describe, can't control, lost it all
Utter death
Pit of frustration beneath my feet
Haunting laugh
Voices howl, pointing at my defeat

--Repeat Chorus--

Why is this the way that it is?
Each step means two steps back again
When all my efforts lie in vain
Where is my future's victory?
All I want is to be worthwhile
Living life to make someone smile
Bitter envy as the world turns round
Walk away without leaving a sound

--Repeat Chorus--
