Where Did This Pain Come From?
You're dreaming,
but it's no reality.
You're desires come to life,
but you only reap death.
You want to love and protect,
but you're damaged and hurt.
You are so alive,
but you feel like dying.
You're hopeful,
but there are serious doubts.
You believe,
but you're tired.
You want to live,
but you're going to die....
WHERE DID THIS PAIN COME FROM?
You love,
but you hate.
You see the light,
but stumble in darkness.
You're happy,
but always sad.
You've smiled,
but you cry more.
You laugh,
buy you're crying...
harder,longer,the pain is so deep...
like a knife plunging in your chest,
purely deadly, like an assassin's dagger...
WHERE DID THIS PAIN COME FROM?
Something is killing you,
and you feel your heart wailing,
pain overwhelming, the hot
tears springing, relief is not your
friend.
Your heart feels like it'll explode in your chest...
WHERE DID THIS PAIN COME FROM?
