Failing  At The Details

I once so smart
had this IQ that all the doctors talked about
was the life of the party
and had the sweetest guy
but something happened yeah
in the midst of my happiness
in the descent of yesterday
I am failing at the details

Just like the voices clamoring in my head
I feel like a fish being swept down stream by the riverbed
just like the ocean
always in love with the waves
it's overflowing now
I lost it right inside you
I am a abandoned building
with the sunset and people forgetting
that I ever happened
when will you release me?

I am so lost....why must you punish
all that my potential was?
killing all that I have loved
how you did it though
I am failing at the details.....
