Ten: Already Down
-Already Down-
I feel like everything
Is falling down
Crashing all around me.
And I'm sick of being kicked
When I'm already down.
I wasn't even close to getting back up
From the first blow
And now,
Yet another has come.
I've never felt more helpless.
I've rarely felt more down.
And I feel so sad
It's like I can't even remember ever being happy.
Which raises the question,
'Have I ever been?'
Deep down I know that yes,
Once upon a time I was,
But it's been so long
Since
Once upon a time
That it's almost as if
It never was.
And I am so sick of being kicked
When I'm already down.
I've never felt more helpless.
I've rarely felt more down.
And I am so sick of being kicked
When I'm already down.
