Inside me is a constant battle,

Everyday I'm losing a little bit more,

Energy and time,

I'm gaining angst and sorrow,

As these lonely days go on,

I say that I'd prefer to be alone,

But it's not the truth,

A white lie,

I need to lie to myself,

So I don't see the truth,

About the pain I'm feeling,

Being alone,

In this battle against myself,

I am losing,

And maybe I wasn't meant to win.
