NOWHERE TO HIDE

Trying to survive right now leaves me quite confused
My childhood stolen, my trust
There are people around me yet nowhere to turn
Another cold hard lesson I must learn
Just seems as if each & every corner I come to I crash & burn
I am normally so positive no matter what I must face
Just a truthful soul or a warm smile
Just someone true - whatever the case

Drugs are not the answer, this I do know
But they do give me light relief
And for periods of time my pain will ease
No interest in depression, it is a lonely, sad disease
Anger- sadness – Hate
These are all wasted things we feel
Anyway, actions cause reactions
It was my choice to steal

Karma has stung me well
No longer do I have the things that made my life real
Lost my home, my car
My best friend doin time, my partner torn from me and locked away
Once he is freed it will never be the same
What sick brutal force is masterminding such a game?

Somewhere still lays my glass, always half full
I just can’t find it right now that’s all

Could someone please turn on the light?
To make my world seem warm and bright

I don’t like it in here it’s way too dark
I can’t feel around no more…It hurts me so

Just wanna see some light at the end
Then I could get up, knowing which way to go
