The Cards Karma Dealt

People tell me to try and be happy and for them I try yet how can I What ways can I I'm drowning in the cards Karma dealt to me I can't drown out the noises, the voices the candle that burned out from the overdose of a thousand lies The wind can't appreciate a moment alone the last night I had to say goodbye I had to close the wounds before the drainage started Forget everything Yours to hold, nothing more than a misconception Agitation of the abbreviations my reward for sacrificing myself putting everyone else first instead of myself My reward is a chain of misery pain and suffering I can hear the talk but I'll walk over the edge without a splat cause I hate it like that Trap me in a room with anybody that hates me and I'll be an animal in a cage full of rage and hate Too late for me to change can't hold me Rather be under a shady tree but shady made me Despite the hidden rain despite the look in my eyes I'm dying on the inside
