The Way It Is

There are days when I don’t feel like getting out of bed

Times when I wish I could get out of my head

I feel like I am standing here screaming

Only to realize that I am dreaming

Never before have my thoughts rang out like they do

Left struggling to know what’s true

There are days when I wish I felt no pain

Time’s when I feel like there is nothing left to gain

I tell myself that I don’t know what to do

But this is so far from true

Why does the pain have to be like this

Seems like a never ending abyss

This is just the way it is
