Reactions damned to be

Never believed someone believed in me
When I'm put to the test
failure is all they see
The mistakes I'm making
only getting worse
Trapped in a choke hold
I'm surely cursed
My empty soul, it manifests
The truth it sees
patience it tests
But when it's lies
can't fucking see
This catarax
keeps blinding me
Bring out the trophies
of those above me
Shine the light
far away from me
False praise and misunderstanding
Never accept
no matter who I'll be
Shackles pulling strong
Can't escape
I know I don't belong
Peace of mind
bound to the chains
Lock me up
and throw away the key
I'm damned to be
Forced to see
Damned to be
