Is It Worth It?



  • I'm not alone but it feels so
    I've got a home but nowhere to go
    Tell me, where's the love I've known?
    Has it gone since I've grown?

    Now I'm bearing the weight of the world
    People are behind me but not beside me
    My head is spinning
    And my mind's in a whirl

    I don't wanna be like my mother
    I'd rather be like any other
    But I've got sadness on my side
    Morality is well past its time

    I'm no better than a beggar for change
    I need a full on life rearrange 
    But I'm stuck, I'm on pause
    Got no motivation, got no cause

    If you could show me the way outta this
    I'd thank you with every single kiss
    But to you I'm just another face
    Blendin' in with the rest of the race

    Tell me, how did it get to this point?
    I smile at your memory as your ghost passes the joint
    I'm losing my sanity,
    Questioning reality

    My mommy was never all there
    I guess that it's not that she didn't care
    She was too far out of it to be aware
    Fightin' the demons in her mind,
    She just didn't have any time

    Still I swear I'll not follow her steps
    I can't handle all that regret
    But here I am, with my mind in a fog
    I can't stay like this for too long

    Habits are hard to break, and
    Freedom's hard to give up
    Nightly deciding what I'm gonna take
    Hoping I don't throw it up

    Now I understand my mother's story
    I know her pain and her worry
    I never wanted to have a habit like her
    Too many damaged nerves

    But here I am with tears on my face
    Looking for artificial happiness in a lonely place
    Got nothing but my shadow by my side
    No sanity left for me to live by

    Tell me why I should stop
    Is it worth it? Is it worth it?
    I need something to numb the pain
    Is it worth it? Is it worth it?
    I need something clouding my brain
    Is it worth it? Is it worth it?
    I need something to keep me sane
    Is it worth it? Is it worth it?
