it’s a sour feeling

when you’re not good enough

but can’t help but believing

when i say it it the mirror

what’s the point of trying

when no one’s keeping score

if they did they’d see you dying

dying to get the credit you deserve

somehow i always end up as the one

the one to depend on

somehow that’s what i’ve become

but who is there for me to depend on

i’m fine i’m always fine

but it’s not really true

if someone took the time

maybe they’d see what’s inside

what i’ve learned

is you can’t rely

on any “friendly” concern

they’ll revert back to “i”

you yourself and i

are your best friend

with you until you die

no one but yourself can you rely
