| Unable Unable to keep a smile through all the pain Unable to keep a smile through all the shame Unusual thoughts flowing freely through an unusual mind Thinking of all the bad, seeing as if I'm blind Just once would things be normal Day after day, struggle after struggle Seems like life is just a mind boggle Unable to hide the tears that cry through my heart Unable to hide the tears that help while we're apart Dealing with societies "perfect way" Only one way to think and one way to look Such bullshit society brings us Seems like it should be written in a book Time goes by so quickly, but yet so slow and sure enough the time will come when my life will end with one blow |
| The Lines Of Pain What a pain that lies deep in my heart Unbearable feeling that begins to start As the sun rises to its day The pain unfolds which is to stay Can't seem to focus on everyday drama So my mind wonders through and through Life has never been easy to deal So I block everything with the "bitch" shield Standing so close to the end of it all Something holds back to the point of no gain Could it be love? Or just another line of pain? |
