Steemit Open Mic Week 46 - Belong - My Original Song About Searching For The Faith I Had Lost

When I was 16, a light switch went off in my head and I went from being a carefree, happy soul to feeling like I didn't want to exist anymore.
I have struggled my entire adult life with these feelings of depression and also feeling lost without faith or spirituality.
This song is a product of those feelings.
My depression and anxiety have caused me to feel alone and isolated for most of my life, like I don't Belong.

Belong

You swim in the moonlight
You live in a dream
Letting time erase what you can't face
You slip outside your memory
You wake in the morning
You sting like a bee
And this light that was my life is somewhere lost inside your memory
Carry me
I'm a broken wing
Lift me up as I'm going under
Unredeemed because I don't believe
So I'll use your faith to carry me
This is not the way it was supposed to be
I am just a broken wing
Lift me up because I'm going under
And I don't belong
Afraid of the daylight
Afraid of my dreams
I am left of what is right
My center's flight crashed down in tragedy
This film isn't my life
I only act out the scenes
And this pill helps me project as I should, but I don't feel anything
Carry me
I'm a broken wing
Lift me up as I'm going under
Unredeemed because I don't believe
So I'll use your faith to carry me
This is not the way it was supposed to be
I am just a broken wing
Lift me up because I'm going under
And I don't belong
