Sometimes the pain is overwhelming,
I just sit and think about the life that's
past,
All the times I've wasted and people I've
let down,
Wishing for a family that I know I'll never have.
And I listen to the people outside my window,
The kids who laugh and play without a care,
It reminds me of the childhood that never
happened,
My friends that said they would back me up, but were never
there.
I think about the men that I fell in love with,
And all that the boys that I would have died
for,
Treated me like dirt and made me feel worthless,
And when I needed them, they shut the door.
Sometimes the sadness seems to surround me,
The feelings that I hold inside,
I never told anyone how I feel,
Except my best friend, but then he died.
And sometimes the pain is just so overwhelming,
It tears me apart inside,
But then I think of my daughter,
And I just thank God I'm alive
