Multiple Sclerosis An Invisible Disease
My heart hurts my soul is depleted
I used to walk around feeling so undefeated
The pain is at a tipping point & I just can't beat it
My brain is killing me & my body follows suit
Sometimes I wonder if I should just pick it up & shoot
Early morning headaches feel like a tumour
Take 12 of these it'll make relief come sooner
Spinal tap & a few MRI's later
They say more pills will make my chances greater
Side effects put me in a dark place
Im scared when I look in the mirror I'll see my killers face
But my son shouldn't have to live through that disgrace
Why me is the answer I want to know
When I pray where do those thoughts go
I tried to be the best person I could
But my life is like a scalpel trying to cut through wood
Pull myself up by my boot straps like you knew I could
I can't say it any clearer but you still misunderstood
