Analysis of In my room
In my room I sit alone,
Thinking about you all day long,
How the days were fun,
Always made my day better,
Always told me to smarted up,
I never listened but I wish I did,
You won't be in heaven,
If I didn't give you stressed,
Now I'm sad and depressed,
Things ain't the same no more,
Barely even get some sleep,
I feel like I'm drowning in the deep,
Happy days are long gone,
I'm too tired to go on,
You always said,
" Life goes on but never ends"
I askes God why,
You had to go,
When I heared your voice,
Telling me you wanted to go back home...
