I belong

Somewhere outside this limbo

Holding me bent over backwards

And bent over forwards

And bent every which way

Because I'm bending for you

Trying bend myself into a shape that's more acceptable

Closer to the image of what you want to see

Than the image that I truly am

I thought that I had found a way

To bend just that far

But I bent too far

And fell my ass down to the floor

Sprawling out

Falling into the floor

Melting into oblivion

Flying into a dark sky that just isn't there

As I find I'm just as lost as I thought I was

Before I found out I could still dream.
