Praying For No Tomorrow
One thing I wanted to avoid,
Regardless of what it cost,
Caught up with me when
Your love I somehow lost.
I never could've imagined it
Breaking me down this way,
Leaving me emotionally crippled.
This is how I'll always stay.
For the rest of my life,
Forced into depression's shadow,
Never again to reach happiness.
Life keeps me at a low.
Somehow I'm still breathing,
I don't know how, I've died
The day you left me.
It killed everything inside.
The condition I'm now in
Is worse than being dead.
I'm tortured with heartbreak
But have no tear to shed.
There's no way to ease
Any of my sorrow or misery.
I pray each day is my last
And tomorrow will never be.
