""Do you still love anything at all
Like you did as a kid?""
She asked and I shrugged it off
I can't find where everything went wrong
Just a gradual defeat, I guess
A subtle freefall

And now I am not afraid to speak my truth
In that I have grown afraid of what I'll lose

Now I'm feeling lost and left behind
And I can't seem to clear my mind
Can't seem to catch my breath
But still I try
Day by day, I'm getting by
This routine is just running dry
And I'm running out of time

The phone calls get fewer year after year
Just a line cause you're on my mind
To say that I'm still here
My belt is loose cause I'm not eating
Eyes are dry, hair receding
And I don't feel right at home when I am

And now I am not afraid to speak my truth
Because I have grown afraid of losing you

The phone calls get fewer year after year
And I swear this is the one where I don't pick up
I've not much of anything to say anyway
Cause nothing's changed
My roots still cling to here
I'm twenty-five and I'm still nowhere near
The person I thought I'd be by now

Now I try to change my storyline
But I can't seem to leave behind
The prologue that I wrote myself
