No Longer Me
I cannot breatheI cannot see
my feelings are gone
no longer me
all the years I’ve gone through
stopped me from things I longed to do
Once again you told me to stop
told me to quit
things I wanted to do
you restricted my life
restricted my heart
But now I fight back
telling you to get off my life
I want it back
You saw what you wanted
we were never one
I didn’t fit in your life
you took me for granted
I cannot breathe
I cannot see
my feelings are gone
no longer me
all the years I’ve gone through
stopped me from things I longed to do
The more you shout at me
the more quiet I’d become
just to shout back
when you least expect it
The more you take room
the lesser I become
I will vanish –
and soon I’ll be gone
I cannot breathe
I cannot see
my feelings are gone
no longer me
all the years I’ve gone through
stopped me from things I longed to do
I cannot breathe
I cannot see
my feelings are gone
no longer me
all the years I’ve gone through
stopped me from things I longed to do
