Cumbersome Life

You're meaningful to me with glee You're perfectly precious and free I'm hiding in the shadow of the sun You saved me from the devil's gun It's a cumbersome life that I'm living It's a cumbersome world worth giving My eyes are as cold as ice to aqua My silver soul is shattered by my flaw The flaw of living with a failure's horrid mentality The gnawing of the worms in this jail of fatality I need to move on from where I am at this moment I need to get over the fact that you bear such resentment It's unbearable to live with you in mind… left behind I feel unstable and irritable and somewhat insecure It's unpredictable to walk in the light, almost fully blind I feel overwhelmed and scared, but oh, I will endure You're significant in my life and more You make me smile to the deepest core I'm revealing myself in the darksome windstorm But, you rejected me and left me in my lonesome dorm Show your love to me with your actions, Not your ruthless, heartless interactions Don't prove yourself by mere words, dear I know I'm a distress mess full of fiery fear I've struggled to stay pretty positive in the long run You and I used to be young and have so much fun Believe in me in this cumbersome life of utter strife Give me a piece of your peace and bring me to life
