I'm Lost Inside

I made a world, I made them real

Names, faces, hearts I could feel

Page after page, I lose my grip

Their lives, their pain, I let it slip

I thought I was the one in control

But they seeped into my soul

Every laugh, every scar

Became my day, became my dark

I’m lost inside the world I made

Their lives and mine begin to fade

I feel their pain, I feel their joy

Every line, every word, every choice

I’m part of them, they’re part of me

Somewhere between the page and reality

Streets I drew, skies I burned

Every corner, every turn

Whispers haunt me when I’m alone

Their voices live, their voices own

Disconnected, breaking down

Weightless, I hit the ground

Nothing left to hold on to

Just the noise and me pushing through

I’m lost inside the world I made

Their lives and mine begin to fade

I feel their pain, I feel their joy

Every line, every word, every choice

I’m part of them, they’re part of me

Somewhere between the page and reality
