Nothing to do

March 19, 2012
By Anonymous

Sometimes it feels like the weight of the world is on my shoulders.
Like no matter what I do, I can’t get anything right.
And I will always disappoint everyone that I love.
And there’s nothing I can do to fix that.

Sometimes it feels like everyone needs something from me.
Like I’m constantly trying to make everyone happy.
And I’m doing the best that I can, but it’s never good enough.
And there’s nothing I can do to fix that.

Sometimes I feel like I shouldn’t have to try this hard.
Like some things should just come easily and fall into place.
And that nothing will ever work out like I want.
And there is nothing I can do to fix that.

Sometimes I feel like I just need a break
Like I need a chance to do things for myself.
And I need to escape all of the pressure that I’m feeling
But still there is nothing that I can do.

Realistic, and easy to relate to. I like how you incorporated the same phrase into each verse.
