Something is hurting inside me...
Ripping my soul in two...
It’s never right. .never wrong....
It’s the way of things.

Why..? Why does this have to happen?
I feel something. .breaking apart...
Falling apart.......it’s hurtful.....

It’s the pain...
Sometimes that life....
Like lovers breaking up...
Like mate ditching another mate....
Why. .does this happen?

It’s not going away. .never ever going away...
It’s never ending.....It feels my fear...
It’s like sorrow, death and grief put together....
Make it stop!

It’s the pain....that hurts my heart...
It’s never ever going away...
My life is falling apart.....
It’s ripping my soul in two halves...
Please make it stop!
Please make it stop!

It’s the pain....it’s the way of life...
It’s going on for an eternity...
Its hurts and it going on and on....
Help me out of this deep darkness of despair....

Help me....help me....Please...
It’s swallowing me up.....
Laughing at me for my foolishness...
Its killing me from the inside...
It’s the pain....Of a life worth of despair, death sorrow and grief.......
Help me....Please....



It’s the pain....of living.....
