Fabric of life

I used to dance around this fabric of life
Jumping and twirling along
But now I've seem to have lost my balance
And the fabric is starting to fray on me
Leaving me only with a fine string to hold on to
And it's pulling me down
As I'm falling to the ground
And oh I try desperately to grab it and not let it go
But it seems like the harder I try the more it slips away
And I continue to fall without even knowing why
The rest of the world on top looks at me
But they never try to help me up
Look at the girl with the broken smile
They stay for a while but then they all turn to leave
And I'm left alone again
So here I am: a struggle, a mess
Just trying to hold on to what I have left
And hoping that maybe in some way
Maybe once I regain control one day
I'll have the strength to make it back to the top
