The Price of Living
I'm slipping between the cracks
I'm slowly losing the plot
Lost on an unknown highway
In a mind that time forgot
The light has died inside me
It is winter in my soul
Nothing moving nothing living
In a bleak eternal cold
The world inside is lonely
The world outside is tough
Where is help when you need it
I have simply had enough
Only my thoughts for company
As they race around my head
A million shards of heartache
I think I'd be better off dead
I wait in bitter silence
For a message I can't hear
Only empty echoes of
A long forgotten fear
I don't know I got here
And I've stopped asking why
It's too hard to go on living
But I'm too scared to die
