let me be
it saddens me that you're scarred
i can't bear it
all this time that's been lost
forsaken
sand in this hourglass fell fast last 3 years
recognition is the least you deserve
forced to this place far from home
all i need is 1 chance
no one does give me that
i stare here at nothing
not even your company
at home i am loved
in this hole i rot
wrong choice of affection
rather than being happy
all this has given me is discontent
indebted i am not
to no one
i resent being here
regulations
nonsense you can't explain
you promised it'll be easy
not fulfilled
all requirements
i have and do comply
for no reason at all you refuse it with a smile
i want to understand why you oppress me
why deny
i don't need you to like me
i want you to appreciate me
come try and walk in my shoes
and after all
i can't bear these things
i am locked down
why can't you just let me be
back home i've got my degree
home i'll never be
never get the chance
never, though i am not indebted
indebted i am not
to no one
and that's it
