♪ Born to be Nothing ~ by Sommer

Описание: LYRICS:

When I was young they told me softly
That I'd never be enough
Said I was built for smallness
And life would always be this rough
I tried to change the story
But the ink was set in stone
No matter how I tried to grow
I stayed the shape they’d always known

And I still hear their voices
In the places I feel weakest

I was born to be nothing, and nothing’s what I’ve become
A quiet disappointment, a life that’s come undone
Just a shadow in the doorway, a name that fades too fast
A fraud inside my own skin, a ghost tied to the past
I’m everything they whispered, every word they feared
A failure walking slowly through a world that never hears

I carried dreams like fragile glass
But they slipped right through my hands
I watched them fall to pieces
Like they never stood a chance
And every time I looked for hope
It turned its back on me
Some people bloom in darkness
I grew into what they’d see

And I still feel the echoes
Of the child who couldn’t fight it

I was born to be nothing, and nothing’s what I’ve become
A quiet disappointment, a life that’s come undone
Just a shadow in the doorway, a name that fades too fast
A fraud inside my own skin, a ghost tied to the past
I’m everything they whispered, every word they feared
A failure walking slowly through a world that never hears

Maybe some are meant to rise
But I’m not one of them
Maybe I was always meant
To break instead of bend
Some stories climb to heaven
Mine sank beneath the waves
Some hearts fight for tomorrow
Mine can’t escape the grave

I was born to be nothing, and nothing’s all I’ll be
A shadow fading quietly where no one’s meant to see
Just a worn-out imitation of the person I should’ve grown
A stranger in the mirror standing barefoot and alone
I’m everything they told me, everything they said
A life so small and silent, I’m easier forgotten than read

So here I drift in quiet rooms
Where no one calls my name
Born to be nothing
And nothing I became…
