You Know You, As I Know One

I see your pain You have nothing to hide I see your enemy's I hear their lies I see fear in your eyes Your bitter cry's You choose to give up You choose to give in And you ask why you never win You drink yourself to death And beg for no breath Yet you still move And you once use to grove Where did you obtain this gloom? Was it the darkness of the earths room? Do you wish for a early doom? I will not allow it to come so soon Must I suffer just like my mother? Or will I leave and find another? I have few family left Two sisters, grandma, grandpa, and three brothers You wish for my best But suffer like the rest Why are you so much of a mess Have I not done the best? I understand I shall fade But I will see you another day When we are on a better way
