Struggle

by Jason   Sep 26, 2007


Why do I struggle with wanting to live?
Maybe I deserve this,
Life is supposed to be joyous,
Darkness has swallowed all hope,
Replacing it with suffocating doubt,

Tell me something to ease my suffering,
All my energy is drained,
My picture of life is torn,
Displayed in a half broken frame,
For people to mock my existence,

As I sit here alone,
The screams from my heart is deafening,
I need your warmth,
To wipe the cold tears from my lifeless face,
I've been trapped in this tragic story from the start,
But it's always been easy to love you in the end,

I can't stand still just to see myself fail,
I must keep moving forward,
Closer to the light where I can be free,
Getting away from all that pains me,
Do you think you could be my salvation?

It's hard to live for the present,
When the future is bleak,
But I will stay strong,
Hoping that time will heal my wounds,
'Cause time is all I have,

As I sit here alone,
The screams from my heart is deafening,
I need your warmth,
To wipe the cold tears from my lifeless face,
I've been trapped in this tragic story from the start,
But it's always been easy to love you in the end...
