Learning To Live

The nightmares I am told will soon subside No more tears ever will I have to hide The weight of the world will finally be gone Accusers will finally be proved so wrong Why am I the one to have to suffer this way? Where I am faced with pain day after day These horrible dreams invade my thoughts I wish that all of this madness hurries and stops If it takes forever then that is how long I’ll try To turn this around and prove it is all a lie To fight and live is to be a great survivor To give up and die is to be a big quitter Learning to live can be a very scary thing to do I’d never be able to if not for you You are the first thing I see whenever I wake You are behind every big decision that I make If it was not for you I’d be a huge mess Beaten down with hurt, pain, and stress I’ve been through a hell of a lot this we know So let’s get to it, my life, let’s just go
