Why does my heart hurt this much?
I'm young, but I feel so old
I am alive, but inside I'm cold 

These tears fall so easily 
It's burning my head 
I am alive, but I wish I was dead

I can't medicate this ache 
Uncured it throbs inside 
I am alive, but I want to hide 

Why does it hurt so much, to be alive?

That is because life is not a bowl of cherries but that can change. Just do it.  Today decide in your head that you want to do something different.  Something you have not done before.  And do it.  Achieve it.  You will feel a whole lot different.  Life is a funny thing.  But you can do anything you want to do.  Because you can.
