more than useless

i feel like

i would like

to be somewhere else doing something that matters

and i'll admit here

while i sit here

my mind wastes away and my doubts start to gather

whats the purpose? it feels worthless

so unwanted like i've lost all my value

i can't find it

not in the least bit

and i'm just scared

so scared that i'll fail you

and sometimes i think that i'm not any good at all

and sometimes i wonder why

why i'm even here at all

but then you assure me

i'm a little more than useless

and when i think that i can't do this

you promise me that i'll get through this

and do something right

do something right for once

so i say if i can't

do something significant

i'll opt to leave most opportunities wasted

and nothing trivial

that life could give me will

measure up to what might have replaced it

too late look

my date book

is packed full of days that were empty and now gone

and i bet

that regret

will prove to get me to improve in the long run

and sometimes i think that i'm not any good at all

and sometimes i wonder why

why i'm even here at all

but then you assure me

i'm a little more than useless

and when i think that i can't do this

you promise me that i'll get through this

and do something right

do something right for once

i'm a little more than useless

and i never knew i knew this

was gonna the day

gonna be the day

that i would do something right

do something right for once

i notice

i know this

week is a symbol of how i use my time

resent it

i spent it

convincing myself the world's doing just fine

without me

doing anything of any consequence

without me

showing any sign of ever making sense

of my time

it's my life

and my right

to use it like i should

like he would

for the good

of everything that i would ever know

i'm a little more than useless

when i think that i can't do this

you promise me that i'll get through this

and do something right

do something right for once

i'm a little more than useless

and i never knew i knew this

was gonna the day

gonna be the day

that i would do something right

do something right for once
