Live a Life

What is it that you want What am i supposed to do The sounds of pain and sadness When i speak to you The grinding of the bones and the tearing of the flesh The empty room of a soul thrown out with the rest Looking through eyes of darkness Its a shame they're so transfixed Blocking out any goodness Wondering why it's missed The sun can still shine on your face but not in your darkened room it's seems you like your torture chamber Never leaving seems much to soon I don't think i will ever understand it Even in my moments of pain Screaming for help so loudly but so comfortably in vain I hope you can find the latter If you listen you just may see Swimming in a pool of hatred Is nowhere life can be The poison you swallow is thick and cuts you open like a rusty knife I pray someday you'll be rid of it so you can finally Live A Life.
