You'D Think It'D Get Easier

That's two gone from my life Since February began First I lost my friend, Grace, And then I lost my aunt. When will this madness end? Will I ever get a break? When will I return to normal Happy and free of heartache? Please, someone tell me it's all right That It's going to be okay No one's told me anything But I guess it wouldn't have helped anyway. I don't want to believe that this is it This is the total, complete end But I don't have any faith left to cling to No heart or love which I can lend. I don't have any trust in anything Because life is so very short God, I wish I knew what was coming So that I could be prepared and alert. But these things happen so suddenly Without any warning A life is gone, another soul dies Leaving the rest of us in mourning. So we are left with broken hearts And tears running down our cheeks We are left, shaking and sad And that's how we'll spend future weeks. With so much death in my life And so many hardships I go through You'd think I'd expect it and it'd get easier But I'm sorry to say that isn't true.
