When times get hard I say a prayer
That one day I'll wish for air
And see it vanish from my lung
While I keep quiet. Hold my tongue.

For life isn't what they say
As you go along your day
To find yourself broken in the dust
While passers by let you rust

I might be bitter and so strain
Sometimes i ignore the pain
But when i feel insecure
I  wish again for something pure

For in my past I have sin
Fell down times.loss not win.
But tell me when your in that dust
How can you never rust?

Something about oil and polishing to avoid rust.

Beautifully captured.

“Most men lead lives of quiet desperation and go to the grave with the song still in them.” -Henry David Thoreau
