When I see other people...
When I see other people
so happy and care free
I think to myself
"Why can't that be me?"
I'm a grown man now
I'm supposed to be strong
but I'm so very tired
I've been fighting this for so long
I want to be normal
I want to feel love
"Why did this happen to me?"
I ask God above
Did I do something wrong?
Am I evil and bad?
If I end my life
will I make everyone glad?
I'm so lonely, I ache
to be held, to feel touch
but I push people away
I can't trust them very much
They hurt me before
and they'll hurt me again
better to be lonely
than to go thruough the pain
These are the things
that I used to feel
I've pretty much conquered,
but I must daily deal
with the ghosts of the past
they come without warning
But now I'm glad
to see every morning
Life's an adventure
It's a curse, and a gift
I hope that my words
will give someone a lift
