Afraid Now

So many things have went wrong

and there's so many bad choices

there were signs there all along

as I ignored all the silent voices

to feel so afraid, now.

 

What life have I been dealt

not wanting to play this game

with every card I truly felt

and each time I lose the same

to feel so afraid, now.

 

There has to be a way to turn around

before I go on in this way

I have traveled close to the ground

praying for death every day

to feel so afraid, now.
