Inane

You try and try, and what’s to show?
You want to leave but just can’t go.
You’d like to shoot but there’s no gun.
Want to escape but cannot run.
It’s tearing you apart,
Don’t know how to start.
(Oh oh, never lets you go
Oh oh, never let it show).
Life got in the way.
There’s nothing more to say.
(Oh oh, never lets you go
Oh oh, never let it show).
You’d like to try but there’s no push.
You always beat around the bush.
You weigh how much there is at stake
And fold just in case you may break.
Then you see the end
But can’t for yourself fend.
(Oh oh, never lets you go
Oh oh, never let it show).
You’re working through your pain…
Life just seems inane.
(Oh oh, never lets you go
Oh oh, never let it show).
