you're not alone

we march endlessly, pointlessly,
with nothing left in sight
why do i fall in line?
i will find my purpose
i will find my purpose
i will find my purpose
and i am not alone, the line's
composed of you and i

you may feel like the only one
struggling to find some light.
but you can't see without the sun
the ones beside you in the fight

"Alone runs through my bones
It consumes me with the night"
But every second brings us closer to dawn
And I see you better in the light

i can see the struggles behind your eyes
jerking around like a swarm of fruit flies
i can see them because they bug me, too.
i want you to know that we're all struggling, too

you're not alone
in the secrets you hide
darkest times you ride
I'll be here at your side

but you replaced your friends with pills and your home with a bed
your mind was at ease with the though of being dead
yet the clouds still parted and the sun still shone
remind you that throughout the darkness, you're not alone

shaky every weeknight
i realize how much we were alike
you cannot breathe or talk for anxiety has you
i sit here with this issue too

there are circles that I know
i keep them to myself
no one else can understand
but all circles bend

back and forth I go again
trying to change, I begin again
but the weight feels lighter than before
and he's washed the blood from the floor

we're fighting together.
we march forward for a reason
no matter the length of time
the past and the seasons

we go through a lot
you and i down this dark road
we go together though
all heading to a new home

tired eyes, another air breather
desperate cries, voices growing weaker
the vast void, of the going and the gone
the victims of different voices,
that all bleed into one
