Want
"WANT"
I want the world, I use to have so long ago
I'm trying hard, yet it's so slow
I don't smile like I use to
I cry more now from the pain inside
The scars of war are like abuse
You can heal from the physical pain
Yet not from the mental pain
Your trust of people is not there no more
Oh, what a cost, this damn war
There are days when I just want to be alone
No one around, no T.V. Or phones
I just want to find my zone
I will walk and wonder why
Then I realized all I did was cry
Oh, please someone break this hold
Grab me and pull me from my soul
I want to be in a tranquil life, where no one fights
Just give me BACK MY LIFE.
