Life Doesn'T Begin At Birth: Try, Fail, Rebound

Life Doesn't Begin At Birth (Try, Fail, Rebound)

When you're down depressed in a heap
and you see their want is all they seek
when you feel you've died but heart beats
numb are your nerves

your worst fears have fallen into place
when you've lost it all as it's gone to waste
and love fell short never there to trace
couldn't be worse

lights are dying, bulbs blown
and so all the life you have known
you must try to fix you

from high up above to crashed below
when you don't believe but yet you know
so deny your thoughts a chance to flow
blocking your hurt

sight allows you to let go
and will lighten up your load
you must try to fix you

tears stream, the mind flows,
here dream, decline lows,
fear, grieve and find space
Arise from your heartache

strength put with time grows
pain over time goes
ambition sparks, let pride race
life begins with a starting place
