I wonder!

Will it ever end?
I wonder.
I smile and I smile
Till my face hurts

In the dark lonely hours of the night
My pillows are drenched in silent tears

Minutes, hours, days, years roll by
Nothing seems to change, inside or out

Its the same old breath in and breath out
Sunrise to sunset

Will it ever end?
I wonder.
I smile and I smile
Till my face hurts

My soul is waking along a dark pitch black road
It is scared lonely and sad

Head down it walks on the edges of road
Stumbling and fumbling in the dark

Cut and bruised... beyond any recognition of pain
It concentrates on placing that one step...just one step

Will it ever end?
I wonder.
I smile and I smile
Till my face hurts

Never has the call of that valley been louder
I struggle hard to turn deaf... tone deaf

Temptation to just given is so... so real
Oh! To just one day fade into the fog

Just the very thought of it makes me smile
I smile and I smile till my face hurts

Will it ever end?
I wonder.
