Day To Day

I live my life day to day,
Never knowing what's coming my way,
Who's going to make life worth living?
Who's going to take it away?
My heart is covered with scars
Did you ever stop to think,
this isn't her fault, its ours?
I didn't think so.
Well what do you know?
Here I sit, pen in hand, thoughts in my head,
Are you thinking about everything you've said?
Trying to remember, just what it was.
Here's an applause.
It's just for you.
For you and everything you do.
For everything you've done.
You're the reason I'm where I'm at.
You can believe that.
I didn't ask for any of this.
Nor do I want it.
Everyday I make a wish,
I never waste it on me.
How rude would that be?
Instead, I wish for everyone else.
I can't sleep at night,
I lay there and wish everything will turn out alright.
Hoping that not only will the next day be a new one,
But that it will be a totally new one.
Worry and stress free.
That's the way it ought to be.
No one will truly ever see,
The way you've made me.
So thank you for everything you do,
I really love living this way.
It makes me absolutely insane.
Theres not much more to say.
