The Wall


Its starts with just a stumble

Right before you really fall

The pain, the dark, the loneliness

Then you seem to hit a wall

There’s no way out, or so it seems

So you spiral even lower

Losing faith, hope and your dreams

Then time starts moving slower

You look for help from anywhere

In all your desperation

And drugs seem such and easy way

To find some satiation

But it’s not long before you realize

No matter how intoxicated

Instead of getting better

Things are just more complicated

You long for things the way they were

Before this nightmare started

You hate your friends and family

To see you broken hearted

You vow to find the answer

To get out of this abyss

And try to find a way to say

I will promise this

I know you have your worries

And doubts are none too few

But I swear I’ll work my hardest

To come back home to you

I’ll make you proud yet once again

Please have faith in me

I’ll be the jess you want to love

The girl I’m meant to be

One day you’ll hear my name

When the honor roll they call

And say there goes our Jessica

She finally climbed the wall
