riding this rollercoaster
finally seeing the fears
not sure i want on this ride
not sure i can handle it
knowing the strenght is somewhere
not knowing exactlly where to find it
wanting to pretend there is nothing wrong
wanting to stand tall and proud
happiness seems to only come
every now and then
pain is a regular visiter
missing my numbness
not sure i'm ready to face the world
the world seems so cruel and uncaring
not a single place for me
wanting to hide somewhere
but its not who i am
wishing it was
it would be so much easier
to live without pain by my side
to avoid my problems
be a wall
i would show them all
but then i would be giving up
those moments of happiness
the reason i live day by day
hoping another one is around the corner
living in a cloud of hopes and dreams
in this dreary world
until another moment of happiness comes along
trying to live

So true...

I give a whole new meaning to the word 'sad.'
