I can't escape this feeling That I'm a ship without a port Although I try my best I come up short

Maybe I'm in denial Maybe I'm deflecting Maybe I'm inadequate Whenever I try helping

Only let them down

I try to give what I can But the span of my attention Seems to fall short of their plan Or reach my soul's intention

Only let them down

And I get an empty feeling All alone with no support

Yes it's an empty feeling Like a ship without a port

When I try my best And come up short
