Sometimes
Sometimes I sit here awake at night
Hoping to find this brighter light
Crying lost its sense of meaning
When I often get this hollow feeling
The feeling of being all alone
The feeling of becoming someone unknown
He never hears my sorrowing cries
Even when he actually tries
Alone and friendless I seem to be
Nobody even listens to me
My friends all have their lives of their own
I've reached out to them, my feelings shown
I get taken from a lot
Can they hear me or not
I've tried to reach out to all those i know
I wish I could run just as far as I can go
I've always been strong as the one to lean on
But sometimes I feel that strength is gone
I'll be ok, my children are here,
I'll believe in faith with nothing to fear
