Up and Down My Never-Ending Road
with each passing day I walk a long way of sorrow
knowing there is no other life to borrow
seeing the world through the eyes of the unseen
drifting past with a brightened beam
I feel my own envy closing in
this life of a depressed downward spin
I'm crushed under the weight of it all
will this be the last time of my undying fall
swaying like waves in the sea
I wonder in my heart if this is the real me
unraveling my ties
pacing towards my own demise
struggling for the light of day
or is the darkness forever will I stay
I see no end
is my path an obscured trend
I loathe the outside world
it sits on an axis while being twirled
all is worry but alas no hope
I'm falling down my last steep slope
