Lullaby of Pain

Misery Loves Company is what they say
Tonight I find myself all alone
Radical ups and downs throughout the day
Lying here feeling my empty soul groan

Roll with it is what I hear
It will be all right
Myself is all I ever fear
As day turns into night

Darkness creeps into the mind
Making it so hard to see
Life becoming blind
What becomes of me?

I have to shut off the heart
Never should have allowed it to feel
I knew better than to start
Heartache and pain making it surreal

Do I take another chance?
Not wanting to ever feel this pain
Give up on romance?
It is so much easier on the brain

I will not allow myself to cry
Some may see that as wrong
I would rather die
Than play that song

It is so hard to stand straight
Trying to move ahead in my life
I feel as if I am too late
Losing the woman I thought would be my wife
