Capture me from Letting me down

Capture me from letting me down
For I have no comfort under these lights
and the rules that I do not know applies
The feeling I have is never encouraging
So capture me from clawing

Capture me from failing
I no longer realize my heart beating
and the beep beep just sound alarming
The hurt and pains are not fiction
So capture me from falling

Capture me from the wakes
For I kicked my own happiness for believing
and those dramatic scenes are repetitions
For the ones I dear for are actually not darling
So capture me from hoping

Capture me from dreaming
Lying down alone; as usual, covered with thoughts
as my blanket get wet with the sweat of my intentions all night long
I am trying, I have walked almost to the end, yet can’t reach far
So capture me from feeling

Capture me from choosing
Is it that our facts in fact are not that factual?
Or maybe the bases of our interests are no more basics
but just an interim basis of meaningless grievances
So capture me from craving

Capture me from standing
Picking between sorts and out;
I preferred standing out and still got sorted
If we can’t fall off the ground; how did we get lowed as the floor?
So capture me from looking

Capture me from all these memories
Sometimes we get honored and no one remembers us though
We struggle to claw, we fight to stand and we bleed as we fall
How would we pick up back, when we don’t know where we lost?
So I promise not to believe anymore, but capture me if I am letting me down
