Time to Live
Depression can swallow you whole if you allow it to...There is always a light at the end of the tunnel, but you must be the one to follow it
The
You see the darkness in my eyes, with fading hope you hear my lies.
How will I turn this all around, and put my feet on solid ground?
I watch the world pass by each day, as if I have nothing to say.
I guess I've been this way too long, and there's so much that I've done wrong.
I know forgiveness often helps, but what if I can't forgive myself?
How do I make it go away, my life's a constant reminder of my shame
The pain is constant, it never fades. I dim the lights and close the shades.
No-one could ever understand, that this is not what I had planned.
A simple life, loving mother, Id always be there when you called
Not a homeless law breaking junkie who don't give a damn at all.
I often contemplate the decisions and the choices I have made
I suppose thats why Ive chosen to turn things around even though Im utterly afraid
It has to begin somewhere, and that time needs to be now
I want this more than anything I just not sure I know how
This is the first step I know that something has to give
Im doing it now and now I know its finally time to live
