Life Is Pain
Location
I live with pain
My life has changed
The things that happened
Cause me shame
As day turns to night
Night becomes day
Born ready to fight
My fears hidden in shade
The world’s in darkness
I try to bring light
I try to stay peaceful
Separate the bad from what’s right
No matter what I do
I feel an aching pain
I’ve lost too many things
My heart is strained
Family s’posed to hold things up but
They’re bringing me down
I get no support
I only get frowns
I leave home happy
I come back sad
A man bound like me
Would instantly go mad
The only time there is peace
Is when I’m alone
Locked behind a door
I grow colder every day
Time has changed my tone
But no matter what I do
I seem to mess up
Wish God would give me a clue
What should I do?
I lost it all
My world has turned
Just the thought
Makes my stomach churn
I struggle every day
I lost track, I lose focus
Somehow, Someway
I wish I could figure out
How to cure my life’s pain
I try to stay strong
I try to gain strength
It’s all wrong
It’s false confidence
Doomed from the start
Born unlucky
My heart ripped apart
There’s nothing of value
That could change my heart
I do everything wrong
A failure to most
Better if I were gone
It would be good for many
Because I am loved by few
Ridiculed daily
Tried to do my best
It’s never good enough
Never predicted a time
When my life wouldn’t be rough
Why is life so tough?
