World So Bright but empty of Light

I live in a world with many lights
that illuminate the stars in a world so bright.
It lights up my path and gives me my might
it also shows me whats wrong and whats right.
Believing in life, dreaming of death
that is what scares me and makes me fret.
Seeing my world in a place with lights so bright
wondering how come my world is dark with no sunlight
I live in a world with  a lot of lights,
looking at the stars shimmering so bright
wondering why my world is absent of light.
Thinking of this girl who once showed me sunlight
now here we are and its darker than last night.
Wondering if tomorrow i get to see her smile
Even though its been long time, actually wait its been a while
Thinking about what she did makes me sick
still I question why she took my little girl and split.
Remembering the night she got drunk and sick
she punched me in the face and called me a prick.
I live in a world with a lot of lights
I gaze at stars growing dimmer during the night
In the darkness i seen a light
I realized i was put in the hospital that night.
trying to get up like i had something to prove
that's when i realized the doctors were holding me, so i couldn't move.
I live in a world with many lights
surrounded by darkness in a world with no sunlight.
I believe in life, I believe in death,
I am tired of being alone god dammit I am depressed.
No one to love, no one to hold i really don't want to die alone
I need my daughter, I need her bad
she needs me like a daughter needs her dad.
I live in a world with many bright lights
Wondering if Ill die alone on a dark night.
Remembering my pain for many years
I don't want live my life in tears.
Ill be watching the stars on a dark and cloudy night
and ill be hoping that the world gets filled with sunlight.
