I Need a Reason

I need a reason 
————————
How can I find a spark 
When my life is so dark
I don’t want to live this way 
Every day I sit and pray 

Try as I might 
I just can’t find any fight 
I’m empty inside 
No strength no pride 

In my life I had plenty 
My sole now is so empty 
Everything my life’s about 
I’ve pushed away and shut out

I know I should be strong and tough 
But when all you love has had enough 
And you know your to blame 
Inside there is no flame

I just can’t seem to find 
 strength of any kind 
I know I’ve got dig so deep
 this mountain I climb is so steep 

I just can’t pull myself out 
I’m so full of fear and doubt 
I need to find some inspiration 
Some sort of aspiration 

Living a life so empty and bleak
You are left feeling so weak
When you just don’t see any reason 
Then you just accept it’s over your beaten
