Drinking in something

I've always been empty to that

Watching you run

Through wavering paths

You have everything

With those happy tears

Running down your smile

And you love of dreams

While I've never felt like that

It's been my only want

To feel like you seem

When I cry it's of those thoughts

I can't do anything incredible

Where I'm lacking

Sick of looking pretty

Only talent I've ever had

And it's so shallow

I don't think looks

Are worth anything

But your dreams

Make you invisible

To feeling like this

When you get your

Sweet inspirations

All I can do is watch

Pretend that it doesn't matter

I wonder if you know

I'm used to failure

And it still hurts me

Everytime

Everday

Drinking

Seeing all the things I want to become and always having to settle for nothing.
