Incapable Twenty Four

Twenty four years looking for perfection But all I’ve gotten is rejection. Refusing to believe I know they always deceive. Twenty four years and my heart has been broken up Like bubbles, sometimes, they just pump up. My world has been crushed down But my head has faced the town. Twenty four years and I’m still waiting, but now, I feel like hating. I want to be hold Cause I see my hopes to get old. Twenty four years and no one has really fought Some of them, misery have brought. Incapable is how I feel And It doesn’t feel real. Twenty four years and I still wonder Is there any thunder? Someone who can leave everything to follow my soul Dry my tears and give me console. Twenty four years and I don’t know what I lack That they always take their promises back. Incapable of being loved It’s not something I feel proud of.
