The Play Part I

by Joseph Arthur

To those it may concern
a page full of words.
I'm leaving you
Though the fire inside s till burns,
this shell I've become is consuming me
As painful as it can be,
I'm open for you to see
my enemy
As though I've never been close
to anyone I still feel it,
I miss it
And I can see no sense at all
I've tried so hard to break my fall
And all around me people say
He's turned his life into a play
Quietly I'm there,
one step closer to despair,
they do not see
This struggle within me,
I thought stronger I would be, God, I was wrong
And I can see no sense at all
I've tried so hard to break my fall
I never meant to fly this way
But in the end it's all a play...
