Are You a Believer
I’m drained from running my body insane
Is there anything to achieve? Is there enough room to
Believe? I reflect…I think… and I’m only driving down that lane
I know I must keep my positivity rowing—I know it’s all true
Every few moments of my life
I don’t know how long I’ll live with this strife
I’d rather go hiking down that road of recovery
And wait until I find a discovery
I once again feel hopeless…shaking off the dread
Hovering around my existence…persistently tearing me down
I could see others go through this hopeless…it hangs us by a thread
I observe my surroundings, trying not to wear a frown
Believe…Believe…why don’t you believe? Am I the one that’s deceiving
You from heading towards happiness—is there a way for you to step out of the abyss?
Grieve…grieve…grieve no more…why are you grieving?
Is there a way to take myself out of my grieving moments?
Can you crush those boulders that pound against me?
