Is life



Is life this unfair or does it only happen to me
Is life this painful or does it only happen to me
You beat abuse assault battery destroy me what I love what I want
It's so painful loving living noone believes you noone wants to hear you
Yet they all wanted something when all you wanted was love happiness

Is life this unfair as I look up to success my soul looks down
Down at you lurking sneaking creeping plotting in the shadows to take from me again
Waiting to hear my tears feed on my pain

Is life this unfair heartless cold cruel
Waiting in the shadows to torment speak knowing noone will believe when they hear
Why is life so cruel unfair
As these tears fall I wonder why hoping for a better life
