Wake-Up Call

I was drowning on the rooftop of a building
Every firework made it harder to breathe
My lungs filled with guilt
And anguish
And sorrow

Like a bird observing
The busy streets from above
I had the choice to fly
And when I was ready to take a chance
I took a step back

What was it all for?
My life is worth more
Than hollow relationships
And worthless liabilities

And only when I finally released myself
From these self-applied feeble chains
I realized that I deserve better than to be neglected
By the only person who owes me love
Myself
Myself
Myself

What was it all for?
My life is worth more
Than hollow relationships
And worthless liabilities
