Literature Text

I’m stuck between two worlds
And I don’t know where to turn
There’s just too many roads
To follow

Can’t quite feel the ground
I see the lights
I hear the sounds
But it’s all hollow

Should I stay the same
Stick to the old codes
Or should I play a new game
It’s just too much to swallow

Why does it have to be so hard
Just to figure out who you are
Can’t you see, that I’m just me
Why can’t I live happily
Why can’t I see?
Why can’t I see?

There are so many ways to turn
But I don’t know who I am
So many lesson not yet learned
Am I the only one,
who’s ever feel this way?

People ask where I’m goin’
Guess I’ll tell you when I get there
Maybe the tide’s over flowin’
And I just don’t know

How can I know where I’m goin’
If I can’t understand,
The me within or just where I’m startin’
Maybe I’m lost in the undertow

I wanna make my mark
Don’t wanna be forgotten
I wanna feel that spark
Watch out I might overflow

Why does it have to be so hard
Just to figure out who you are
Can’t you see, that I’m just me
Why can’t I live happily
Why can’t I see?
Why can’t I see?

There are so many ways to turn
But I don’t know who I am
So many lesson not yet learned
Am I the only one,
who’s ever feel this way?
I don't know if this really works as a song or not. If there are any structual problems or lines that seem awkward don't hesitate to mention it. Especailly if you can think of something better.

This is about how I feel (but slightly mor dramatized.) some times i feel rally lost because I am changing in personality and I'm not sure what i want to be like. Also I'm at the point in my life when people always ask me "what do you want to do," or "where do want to go to college." My parents want me to apply for scholorships and stuff but I'm only a Junior and I have no idea where to apply and how. I would kind of like to be a writter but since, for one thing, I have trouble finishing things, and two, I don't know if i would cut it. But I also like other things.

But you probaly just want to read the poem since this isn't a journal entry.
