Sunset at dawn

Look at the sunset
Look at it's glow
The sun hasn't gone yet
I beg it to slow
Down, if it sets I'm trapped
In a world that pops
My self esteem as it is tapped
Into my body, I want to call the cops
Nobody's listening to me
I want to cry, my voice is broken
I hurt, agony, tears beg to be free
But I've accepted that I'm just a token
Of a life that to them is so useless
My comedy becomes a live tragedy
I'm begging the sun to stay glowing
Please.
