I'd rather be asleep or even dead
So I'll stop worrying about what lies ahead.
All my hopes and dreams are already exhausted.
Tired of thinking any more thoughts in my head.
-
I don't know if I can hold on much longer,
Getting my hands on everything instantly, I'm fonder.
If only my waiting can make me stronger
And that my fear and doubts do not linger.
-
It feels like I'm still here and everyone's there,
Why does life always have to be unfair?
Ah, my God, surely you would care.
You wouldn't let harm come to my hair.
-
Still a tired soul in an endless night.
When will you come back, morning light?
I'm growing anxious in this pool of fright.
Uncertain if I should win or lose this fight.
-
All my worries came crashing down.
My life's a joke and God's the clown.
Instead of smiling, I just frown.
In the sea of sadness, again I drown.
