Why do I always feel so weak
When I know that I am strong
I pile on problems and deal with them
Yet still I hobble along

But when heavy sadness weighs me down
Until I crash and burn
I get back up and go again
Because I never learn

It's impossible to understand
Why I care so much
I know that if I save someone
I'm able to get a rush

Now my shoulders have grown too stiff
I can't support this weight
But I don't want the hurt to spill
Because it's much too great

It's never fair that I can carry this tremendous amount of pain
Then I'm left drained and empty
Relying on myself to regain

I hate it that after all I do
I'm completely hollow inside
And then I start all over again
No way to be revived
