I haven’t cried in a while
Must be hidden behind my smile
I hold back the tears
Succumbing to fears
Been that way since I was a child

I needed a shoulder
Even though I’ve grown older
As tears stream down from my face
The life of a loser
An always wrong chooser
Living a life gone to waste

No other way to describe it
I know, cause I tried it
No dream and no drive
But, I’m lucky to still be alive

There’s always tomorrow
To drown in my sorrow
Another day wasted away
Time keeps on ticking
I’ve taken a licking
I guess that I’m here to stay
