Better In Time

sadness overcomes me
darkness fills my mind
depression seems to swiftly 
come and pass me by

life is but a struggle
that i try so hard to bear
but sometimes i break down and cry
with no one there to care

i think about the way it was
before my life fell apart
i think about the happiness
you gave me before we had to part

but now all i feel is sadness
overcoming my hollow soul
now all i feel is depression
taking its last hold

i know that life is better
and i'm so sick of the tears 
my life is but a nightmare
that i haven't awaken from for 16 years

i know that it will be okay
time will ease my pain
but i'm not the guy to wait for it 
to bring me happiness again
