on trial


there is nothing to stop me
that's what I say
as I stumble through life
every single day
I struggle and strive
still I come up short
I alone am on trial
and you are the court

"guilty" you tell me
and I sadly listen
to the words that control me
I have no permission 
to be the person
I once thought I'd be
now there's nobody who'll
pay attention to me

tell me my sentence
give me a sign
that life will go on
and I won't be left behind
this is my longing
to you I will plead
gaining my innocence
is all that I need
