dubiety

nobody told me i'd feel this way

and now i'm trying to fit the pieces together

knowing that they're just as good as gone

i try to take pride in what i used to know

when things were brighter

when what's become old wasn't old

and i feel my story was never told

when i was fierce

when my heart was gold

sometimes i see that little girl

i see curiosity in her eyes

i see love in her heart

i see purity in her smile

and now the girl is gone

she has been cast into the vault of dreams

the world has taken her away from reality

only in the mind will this girl stay

they've replaced her with a woman, uncertain of everything and certain of nothing, just trying to stay afloat on life's transient bay

all she sees is dubiety

in the broken society

dubiety

when she cries along

dubiety

in her little home

in her little life

there's so little time

dubiety

no solidarity

she longs for solidarity
