Here I sit and watch my world come crumbling down
I cry for help but no one's around
Silently screamimg I bang my head against the wall
It seems like no one cares at all
Always an emotion, but how can I explain-how can I explain
Kind of like the scent of a rose, with words I can't explain
The same with my pain
Caught up in emotion-goes over my head-goes over my head
SOmetimes I got to think to myself is this life or death
Am I living or am I dead
The clock keeps ticking but nothing else seems to change
Problems never solved-just rearranged
And when I think about all the times that I've had
SO few good-so many bad
I search for personality and I look for things I cannot see
Love and peace flash through my mind-pain and hate are all I find
Find no hope in nothing new-never had a dream come true
Lies and hate and agony-through my eyes that's all I see
If I'm gonna cry-will you wipe away my tears?
If I'm gonna die-Lord please take away my fear
Before I drown in sorrow-last thing that I'll say
How will I laugh tomorrow-if I can't even smile today
Today today-when I can't even smile today
Today today-when I can't even smile today
How will I laugh tomorrow-when I can't even smile today
How will I laugh tomorrow-when I can't even smile today
