Shattered Dreams
 
 

I'm living in a world of shattered dreams
And it seems there's no way out
My mind's swimming in doubt
Should I do something constructive
Or something destructive
To keep my mind off it all
But the pain will still be there
Just buried and hidden
So who will I be kidding
To pretent that I'm fine
Between sanity and madness there lies a thin line
And soon I'll be stepping over to the other side
The only thing stopping me now is my pride
But the pull is small and the push is strong
And I feel that now it won't be long
Before I go insane
I just can't live with this pain
I try to block it out of my mind
And go on leaving it all behind
But it's all in vain
It can never be the same
While the pain might go away
The scars are here to stay
And remind me each day
Of dreams now shattered
