chosen one

I want my destiny

Given in my hand like a trophy.

I want to know what I'm made for,

Right now, I feel empty. 

 

Everyone else has their purpose,

And they just seem to fit. 

Why am I left sitting on the bench,

Waiting for a bus that'll never come?

 

I once dreamt of a fantasy world,

Where I would be "the chosen one"

I would hold my sword up high,

And be the ultimate role model. 

 

Now I feel unfit

To be in such a world. 

It's like I'm living a lie

Finally finding my purpose. 

 

Can I give away my destiny?

Can I avoid it somehow?

Maybe they can see that I don't deserve

To be their chosen one.

    We run back to your house,

    The lights are still on,

    And they cover your freckled face,

    Like it's the sun.

     

    The grass brushes our feet,

    And the wind catches in your hair,

    We sit out on the sand,

    The fog covers the sky,

    And blankets the world,

    Like a shield. 

     

    The waves nip at our feet,

    The water's cold

    But I'm warm because you hold my hand,

  • observation i

    We stand on the dock,

    The sun has set,

    But I can see your happiness 

    Even in the dead of night.

     

    The streetlight's on,

    The metal is all rusted

    And covered in salt,
