Nothing In Return

Sacrifice and compromise

Bridges that I'm yet to find on my own

But they're not too far from home

I've got shoes bigger than my own to fill,

And most days I feel like I never will.

But I'm still hungry

I tried but I failed because every time I close my eyes

I saw my self in retrospective,

I saw myself through tired eyes.

I gave up everything for this and got back nothing in return

Now everything we ever missed was everything we never learnt

I took back everything,

And tried to see,

The way we looked at everything so carelessly.

Is it obvious I'm nervous with this one?

I tried but I failed because every time I close my eyes

I saw my self in retrospective,

I saw myself through tired eyes.

I gave up everything for this and got back nothing in return

Now everything we ever missed was everything we never learnt

I worry,

But I'm still hungry

I worry,

But I'm still hungry

Is it obvious I'm nervous?

I tried but I failed because every time I close my eyes

I saw my self in retrospective,

I saw myself through tired eyes.

I gave up everything for this and got back nothing in return (I worry)

Now everything we ever missed was everything we never learnt (but I'm still hungry)

I worry,

But I'm still hungry

I worry,

But I'm still hungry.
