My Heart's Pain
As i sit and look over my life,i wonder how i've lasted so long
how i made it through it all, and came out so very strong.
I thought my soul, my heart was empty, there was no love to be found
no place to hold love, because it wasn't around.
Sometimes it seemed, i had lived a long and unhappy life, so much tragedy had gone down
nothing it seemed, was left in it's wake, but unhappiness all around.
Love hurts, loss hurts, what's the use of trying
it seemed, life was not worth living, all that was left, was dying.
I've lived and loved, to a degree, it's true
i've held fast, i've let go, nothing's left to do.
My heart had been through the mill, and round and round again
nothing's true, nothing's real, all was heartache and pain.
In the still of the night, i could hear my heart break
in the wake of dawning, there was no more i could take.
I wonder how i had lasted so long, only God knew the reason why
i was still here at all, just letting the world go by.
How do you survive, in a world such as this, how do you keep control,
sometimes, i wish.
I wished there were no more pain, no heartaches to bear,
i wished life was wonderful, with someone to care
to care about me and mine, to care about hearts that shatter,
someone to touch your soul, someone that took time to matter.
This race, i've run, has not always been a happy one, time shall ease
my heart's pain, maybe one day, i will have won.
