Maze of Pain and Recovery

Pulling you out of our gloomy cloud
Is a mission for me

 I’ve been there before
Maybe not the same but I’ve felt pain 

To the darkest depths of suicide
To losing every ounce of pride

Many ways and situations 
Have turned my life to black

I’ve believed I was weak
For letting misty figures
 Take me to the depths of Hell

But I’m still here
 I’ve not been taken yet

I predict your every days a planned
 Journey through darkness
Even on the sunniest day

Repetitive plans of positive intrusions
 And self belief I will install
 To slow down this soul destroyers negative fall

There is no guarantee I am right
I’m just here to help your plight

To show you glimpses of possibilities 
Which I have force fed myself to learn

I know we can pick each other up
When we fall on just plain bad luck
