The Best of Me (Running Out) by planet p
Disclaimer I don't own 1DOL or any of its characters.
Once, I thought I had it all
I was going to be big, I felt so tall
I thought I'd make it big
Make my parents proud
But now I'm sinking, sinking down deep
In a grave of my own digging
I'm running and I'm scared
I couldn't live with myself
If my parents got hurt
And they won't have it any other way, but for this problem to be shared
Because we're a family, I've never sat alone on this shelf
I'm so hurt
For what could have been, for what will never be
For the chances that have gone astray
And not my way
And all because we trusted a friend
And now that friend has turned on us
Turned out not to be a friend
At all
I don't have any songs to sing, now
My world is silent now
As though someone came up to me and whispered loudly in my ear, "Shush"
But now I've fled
I'll be forever condemned to bleed
For the love I left behind
The love I could not hold
I'm sorry Mum and Dad
I'm sorry Vince
I'm sorry me
I'm sorry I'll never be
The best of me.
