Hopeless

i hear the cries 

i see the pain in their eyes

i feel the screams

from all the dreams

my heart bleeds

my lonliness plants another seed

feeling helpless and useless

this burdens my soul

burning another hole

wishing to shut it all off

wishing i could turn away

with me it seems to all stay!
