When Nothing

When nothing is working out
And the last place you can turn to
Turns its back on you
There’s nothing to be done.

Don’t ignore the truth
It’s staring you in the face
Your voice rises so you’re heard
But no one will listen until the truth is back in place.

Why are they staring?
What did you do wrong?
I bet you can’t fix it
It worked out in a way.

They’re gone
I’m still here
You got me when you wanted them
Give in, let up.
You don’t always get what you want.
