The Drive

I begin to drive
With no destination in mind
I think about how
I got into this bind

I wish I had somewhere to go
Some place to call a home
Because I'm in a living hell
And I feel so alone

I'm an adult but still
Treated like a child
I just want to get out
Out into the wild

So I keep driving
With no destination in mind
Wishing for a friend
Just one I could find

Feels like i cant trust anyone
No one to turn to when I feel this way
Maybe I do have a couple
But thats not enough today

I dont know what i need
To be able to throw away the cane
Maybe I need to feel cared for
Just please no more pain

Been driving for two hours now
With no destination in mind
Wish i could feel happy again
Without a mask to hide behind

For I had no happy childhood
Always had to fight
No need for details
The worst would probably be right

I finally stop driving
With one destination in mind
Made a turn to the ocean
The only place i don't feel blind

Somehow it feels peaceful
Behind my worries remain
I wish i could stay here forever
Maybe I'd become sane

But until then, I drive back home
As the troubles come back once more
What to do now
It seems heavier than before
