What To Do

by Chris   Nov 1, 2011


Every day is a new struggle to find myself
Looking into the mirror and seeing a stranger
No longer sure of who or what I am anymore

So I stand here teetering on the edge
Asking myself whether I should jump
Maybe I should just let myself fall
Or stand my ground and continue to fight

Everywhere I turn I have to fight the world
All the while I’m carrying it on my shoulders
With the secrets of everyone around me bottled up
Feeling myself rip apart at the seams

I just don’t have the answer to life anymore
Thought I had it all worked out to a tee
And now everything has fallen apart

Endured countless hardships to make it work
Followed my heart every step of the way
And in the end I only found more darkness

I see no light at the end of the tunnel
Just the chance for eternal peace
Or countless more struggles and pains

Do I continue to fight my way towards a light
Hope everything will work out in the end
Or do I give up all hope on having hope
Just surrender myself to the abyss of my soul
