Dark Road

I been walking down a road
one hard to comprehend except
where the leaves are all brown
and the trees are all dead
where it's always raining
and people never go
my broken soul
constantly caught in a tornado
thrown into millions of pieces
scattered on this road
but no one ever sees
a place far to dark to go
but everyday I'm breathing
everyday I'm alive
I'm not exactly living
but still I survive
caught in all this mess
I wish I never touched
the sense of being high
now I just can't unclutch
I got my whole life ahead of me
only eighteen
but do you really choose
who you become to be?
I don't know anymore
maybe all those years showed me
that verbal abuse is an everyday pain
that only kills slowly
and everyday I'm faded
I almost forget
how bad the pain hurts
til I'm sober again
so I walk down this road
like it doesn't phase me
but inside my mind
its fuckin' driving me crazy
maybe there's a turn
or a car coming my way
to guide me, to show me
tomorrow's another day
but when I remember
there's no one ever on this road
maybe I'll become a stronger person
because I'm forced to walk alone ....
