What Is Hurt
What is hurt, what is pain
are these two even the same
some people have no hurt nor pain
with that you learn nothing and thats a shame
Then others hurt all the time
yes those ones who have not even a dime
what is life's purpose if everyone has lies
on the surface
lies to cover both pain and shame
hurt deep inside no one wishes to claim
I've come to discover the hurt that I cover
only gets worse, I guess its just the way it works
the hurts so bad it turns to pain
in which only time in our life it wishes to drain
everyone wishes they had no hurt or pain
just to gain less time sad and more time
happy, this is what I was told by my pappy
slowly but surly I start to believe
