I need time by myself
As I try to pull myself together
I've been doing it all these years
It seems to just be getting harder
As I cry by myself
No one around to see
I try to pull myself together
I don't succeed
My past feels like my present
An endless road I walk
As everyone tries to change it
It shows I'm the only one who understands it.

Everyone who knows about my past tells me they wish they could change it, they all try to help me forget about, but when something like that happens it just wont go away your life will never be the same, at times I feel like i stand alone and I really wish someone would just once understand this.
