Tears Dry

Tears day like water freezes
and all your left with is a bitter feeling
Why is it me that to deal with this pain?
But than you realize your not the only one 
that feels like their going insane

And once you arrive at this conclusion 
it doesn't do a thing to sooth you
It just makes you angry
Why does such a good person get
punished this way?

Tears began to leak from the hurt
person's eyes
cause they work day to day and
constantly sacrifice and compromise

Is this the fruit I receive for all the labors 
that I slaved? 
May be I should just run away

Tears dry like water freezes 
and all your left with is a bitter feeling
