Purpose

It's too easy to miss life's beauty in the midst of pain I gotta believe this isn't all for nothing This heart is crumbling in my chest What happens when I lay to rest I've lived day after day dying to find A reason to hang on to life I've been given so much Possessions and love Still my worth im unsure of In the midst of everything I'm left here so empty I sit and watch crowds of people I wonder if their smiles are just a mask Or is it possible to keep your heart in tact I need to know if I can enjoy beauty again If I showed you my pain, would your heart let me in It's too easy to miss life's beauty in the midst of pain I gotta believe this isn't all for nothing This heart is crumbling in my chest What happens when I lay to rest I desire to see the world with a heart of a child Oh to let my imagination run wild Maybe ignorance is bliss Because the more I know The more I fear the world I want to believe in happy endings That the life I live has meaning But maybe this pain has a purpose Maybe the scars I bare were worth it In the midst of my hell I realized how far I fell God please help me believe I'm begging for forgiveness I've given up on this dark road I can't live this life alone It's too easy to miss life's beauty in the midst of pain I gotta believe this isn't all for nothing This heart is crumbling in my chest What happens when I lay to rest
