Sinking down, sinking down low
Can't climb out of this deep,black hole
Loneliness always here; I'd rather be dead than to
live through this.
No one understands the way that I feel,
They think that it's God that I need to
help me heal.
Well, I wish it was easier than that,
I wish I could shed this endless curse.
I tried every cure and it keeps getting worse.
I'm drowning and there's nobody near.
Won't somebody please,please make this pain go away!
I can't eat, I can't sleep and it's pounding in my head.
It just makes me feel that I'd rather be dead.
This storm never ends and it keeps getting cold,
I'm not yet fifty, but I already feel too damn old!

MY PROMISE
Last night I dreamed that I was dead
I dreamed that it was over
There was no torment in my heart
No sorrow lingered
Prescription drugs on tap,
More addictive than crack
Drugs flowing freely into the minds of people whose thought processes
by Ronnie Jay
You know that hangdog feeling
When life's kicked you in the crutch,
When the world seems ranged against you
And to breathe
by CanCan
There you are in the mirror again
Looking for hope and even a friend
The blemishes you find that no one else sees
You cry in
A shadow flees through the night
Swift and stealthy
A demon
with glowing red eyes
She stops
in front of a bistro
Moves in,
closing
