Текст пісні
You poor unfortunate soul, how disgusting, you have none
Hear their voices whisper, "your value is less, you're done."
I see the change in their eyes, the shift in each tone
Once I was one of them, now I stand on my own
The distance between us grows cruel and wide
They cross the street away from me
With hurried steps and eyes denied
The fields are barren; we once danced through the grass
Yesterday I had a future, now I'm just a ghost from the past
People fade away where support once used to be
Friends I thought were forever now turn and pretend not to see
Alone with the echoes of every unanswered cry
I reach out for help as they all walk on by
My dreams were praised when the times were good
But now I'm told to let them go, that I'm foolish to have stood
I stood taller once; I spoke with confidence and grace
Now I'm broken apparently, staring at fate's empty face
Was all that I am defined by how others see me?
Is any connection true, if in hardship they flee me?
Look a little closer, don't look away from me
I'm still here with a heartbeat
A soul and a story, yearning to be free
These invisible scars are all that you left as you turned away
But I hold onto my humanity
Though you treat me like I'm worthless today
You poor unfortunate soul... I was you, not long ago
