Something I Left Behind

Don't look inside
I'm far too empty
To reciprocate your dream
And still you believe
That I was ever capable of
Overcoming these obstacles but
My promise was tarnished long ago
There's nothing now

The years still feel the same
But nothing seems to work now
I tried so hard to feel
I'd make it through but somehow
I find myself in the same position
Fighting against my own ambition
I'll never find
The something I left behind

Don't look inside
I'm far too broken
To accommodate your need
And still you believe
What was never attainable and
What was never possible for
My promise was tarnished long ago
There's nothing now.
