One Long Year

Verse 1
There's no answers to any of my questions
But I keep asking the same ones
Time's moving slow
Everything is the same
Nothing has changed
I'm still locked inside

Verse 2
What's the point of wishing?
If none of your dreams come true
It's just a waste of time
I'll try doing something else
It's the first of June
But January seems far away
I'm very anxious
I'm looking for a way out

Chorus 1
Why has this been a very long year?
I've been struggling to get myself on the right track
I'm hoping it'll come to an end
I want to venture out into the world

Chorus 2
Why has this been a very long year?
I've been struggling to become a stronger person
All the memories are tearing me apart
I have to leave the past behind

Chorus 3
Why has this been a very long year?
I've been trying to hide myself from all the pain
There are many words that are left unspoken
I don't have an ounce of courage in me

Chorus 4
Why has this been a very long year?
I have done nothing to deserve this
I tried to change who I really was
But now there's smoke surrounding me
