When Doing Wrong Feels So Right

Love is the master and we but it's slave yet as a slave we can enter into a world of pain To aim for the stars and crave the one you love feels so right and yet can lead to darkend days lovers of drugs lovers of drink can build a world of pain when following the road of love your heart leaps for joy the world of life brighter with eachy single day yet the journey through drink is loaded with suffering It can feel so right to gain the threshold of love the joy of sharing your life with your dreams the beauty of living your life with your rose but dreams are just part of life bills and reality set in two wages two people make for an easier life one wage and drinks illness make for a struggle the mind is tested forever finding fault The mind is tested forever dreaming of solutions the mind is tested forever rebuilding from the pain we are but slave's to our love wanting joy and happiness yet finding the pain of broken dreams When doing wrong feels so right we follow the road of love and that feels so right yet we live with the effects of drink the battles and the war and that is so wrong. I live each day hoping that perhaps this week the love of my life will climb above the suffering yet each day thousands of people live knowing tomorrows broken promise knowing the dreams our lovers spin might never be real knowing that there love, might never be whole addiction the crafter of lies building the pain of tomorrow.
