Day By Day

I looked into my broken mirror At the shattered images of me I watched my fragmented life fall piece by piece Til there was nothing left to see I blew out my exhausted candle And lay down upon my wrinkled bed I let the dark consume my soul As the nightmares filled my head I did warfare with the demons Who came to stake their claim And torment what's left of my sanity Until all that's left is pain This crippling loneliness vice grips my heart To where I no longer know how to feel And I walk out my door with a pasted on smile And act like someone who isn't real I pray God above has heard my plea And he will soon send help my way And he will wipe away the scars I bear And live to love another day
