Not From Where I Stand

I once felt comfortable

With enemies but now I see

A hopeless situation endlessly

My memory, is on a loop

It goes around

Things are so tough now, I'm torn inside

What if I run away?

Things are not

Getting any better

I didn't want to

See a world collide

What if I hide away?

Things are not

Getting any better

Not from where I stand!

Another day begins to pick up a pen

I'm staying in

I try to document what's happening

And not pretend, that life will be

Just like before
