Grain

alone I feel
without a purpose
hiding inside my shell in
shame
sitting here, waiting
for something to change
but I'm holding my breath again

looking at myself in
the mirror
I am the unfairest of them all
happiness is only denial
that the pedestal's about to fall

Chorus:
         I'm just a grain on a sandless beach and
         all of my dreams are out of my reach
         I'm just a drop in an empty cup
         and all of my hopes are now given up

what I fear, is that
life will go on, and I can't get through it
I tried so hard
to find myself, but I can't seem
to do it
I don't know
which path to choose, cuz they all are
unending
and no matter what
or how I feel
all remarks are condescending

Bridge:
Never loved, never free
Who do you want me to be
Only known
by only some
I can't wait or I'll be undone

(chorus)
