does anybody care
is anyone there?
insignificant
insufficient
crying myself to sleep
wondering if anyone
would even
notice
if I disappeared
forever.
slipped away
without a prayer
seeking acceptance
approval and grace
gaining laughter
ignorance and dismissal
the mess inside my soul
is pulling me down
the only way out
seems to be closer
than you’d think.
“If I wasn’t here tomorrow would anybody care
If my time was up I’d wanna know
You were happy I was there
If I wasn’t here tomorrow would anyone lose sleep
If I wasn’t hard and hollow
Then maybe you would miss me”
-Skillet, “Would It Matter”
