My Struggle
A never ending battle reeking havoc in my mind
Oh how I wish i could leave this all behind
For a truly endless time, one side fires at the other
Each and every time, makes me want to run for cover
Chewing on my being, way down deep inside my soul
Each and every one, leaves me with a giant hole
It stares me in the face, with a truly evil grin
I really have no clue, that says i can truly win
One side says I can't. one side says i can
And one side says don't listen, suck it up and be a man
Still I try to scream for help, and tell people I'm not well
But all I get is silence, and it's putting me through hell
It punches me and smiles, it spits on me and laughs
And at the same time, it still stabs me in the back
Steeling every bit of trust, I've had for all my friends
Telling me that they don't care, that we can't make a mends
Stabbing me right through the soul, the essence of my being
A truly heartless torture, such as none you've ever seen
I finally turn my head towards God, and ask him on my knees
Please take this pain from me, I beg you dear God please
Despite what i may have thought, he made me look and see
He wrapped me with his warm embrace, and then he lifted me
Now I know without a doubt that he is truly there
I also know for all my life, that he will always care
