Too Much

Sometimes I get to thinking

About all that’s happened in my life

Or just the more recent history

It’s normal to look back

I like to remember the good times

And I know that there was some not so good

But the more I think about all that’s happened

The more I realize that…

I don’t know what’s going on

I can’t really do much

Sometimes I’m just a passenger in my own life

I don’t know how it happened

When I get to thinking like this

That’s when I know

What I don’t know

All I know is that it’s just too much

It can be too much to handle

And it’s too much to think about

All in all I miss the people that were here

The people that aren’t here now

I don’t know when they’ll be back

I don’t know if they’ll be back

But I miss them

And I try not to think too much

I work as much as I can

But work just isn’t enough anymore

Work used to be something I loved

It was something I wanted to be doing

Now I just work so that I don’t think

And I do it just to get by

There are little things that get me through

Just little moments that I can enjoy

I have too much free time

Too much time to think

It’s too quiet now

And I don’t really have anyone to talk to

There used to be someone to talk to

Friends to hang out with

To go out with

Just to be with

But now…

Now it’s so quiet

It’s too quiet

And it gets to be too much

Sometimes it’s just too much
