My Hell begins when I wake up
Bill collectors calling, they can't get enough
I answer the door, and who could it be
Another solicitor smiling at me
Give us your money, so we can make a sale
Then take our product, that will send in the mail
The mortgage is due, we can't pay this month
They send you letters, that say they've had enough.
You try to catch up to your stressful life
Then in run the kids, and here comes more strife
Mom were hungry, that's all they can say
Get a snack kids and go out and play
Now it's time to put clothes in the dryer
You decide to take a drive but you have a flat tire
You settle with staying in and fixing dinner
Your husband's whining he can't find the remote
While your slaving to fix food to stick down his throat
The kids come in and ask what your cookin'
Then they complain, cause they don't want none.
I've had enough I can't take no more,
I feel I am ready to fly out the door
My hell is right here one this earth
So, I hope when I get to heaven it will be all it is worth.

The clouds struggle to find their place
And I sit here in MY struggle to see

Once the sun was shining. My parents were strong. The earth was calm, or so I was oblivious.
