My Fight

Yet another one's descended from my heaven today.
They all come and go but none know how to stay.
So I sit atop my cloud, kneeling as I pray
For the strength to be able to see the world their way.

Cos it's so dark I can't see.
The light is hiding from me.

Where I am it's always night.
No one knows about my plight.
Self-aware to grievous heights.
I'm left alone with my might.

I can walk like them and talk like them
But I know I'm not one of them
And I'll never be because I'm me
But they don't know cos they can't see.

They think I make things better, that our joining is fate.
They don't see the truth of me before it's too late.
I am their respite and I carry all their weight
So when they finally see me they don't know how to hate.

Cos I take away their hurt
And I quench all their thirst.

Where I am it's always night.
No one knows about my plight.
Self-aware to grievous heights.
I'm left alone with my might.

I can walk like them and talk like them
But I know I'm not one of them
And I'll never be because I'm me
But they don't know cos they can't see.

I listen to them talk and I listen to them moan.
While I am with them I know I am alone.
I endure and fix their problems till outgrown.
While I teach them independence the lesson is my own.

Now I deal with my fear.
Is my life really here?

Where I am it's always night.
No one knows about my plight.
Self-aware to grievous heights.
I'm left alone with my might.

I can walk like them and talk like them
But I know I'm not one of them
And I'll never be because I'm me
But they don't know cos they can't see.

Where I am it's always night.
No one knows about my plight.
Self-aware to grievous heights.
I'm left alone with my might.
I'm left alone. I'm best left alone.
