Desperation

Not really sure what I'm doing

Just running from life I guess

When all the things around me

Always seem to be such a mess

Why is it all the good times

Just seem to slip away?

Leaving me filled with sadness

And no hope for a brighter day

If my time should end tomorrow

I'm not sure that I'd be missed

All I've ever wanted from life

Is to have a little happiness

Why is it I feel so desperate?

In my quest to just find peace

I need to find a better way

To put my mind at ease

If I were just to end it all

Would it really be so bad?

Or would it only leave my family

To live their lives feeling sad?
