I Wish You Could See

I wish you could see

I wish you could see the pain, like a glow on my skin
Know just what to do, whatever struggle I am in
I wish I could help, do more round the house
I really do feel like an almighty louse
Listening to me of my pains and my groaning 
You really must be, so sick of my moaning

If I could just stay here curled up in a ball
With no movement, not doing f all
Maybe It would keep me from crying in pain
Yet still my tears would all be in vein

What life is this if I stay couped in doors
Rolling around, stretching out on all fours
Must try harder
Must get stronger
Give me drugs
Just wish they'd last longer
