Night life, ain't new to
me
Punctured heart, wound
deep
Many lies so I can't
believe,
what you have to say to
Me.

Wound deep but I won't
bleed,
lies pulled over my eyes so I can't
see,
The truth so I can be set
free.

No one could see the pain deep down
inside
My eyes are burning from the tears I
cried
so im screaming to sky asking
"why?"

Why is life such a horrible
book
I swear I swallowed all I
could.

I swallowed all I can and took the blame and pain for both of
us
So I had enough - cause this stuff aint
right,
I'm so tired reading this
unfair book called
"Life"

I have so many emotions bottled
up
But I'm not about to give in so I turn around and tell life "what's
up!"

Till its all beaten
down
I tell them "Bet you aint smiling
now."

I feel so great that I can't wait to show everybody
that ever shouted at
me - bailed on
me.

and to who told me that I wouldn't make it past 8th
grade
that "I did it!" in they
face.

So i turned
around
and life grabbed me by the leg and I went face first on to the
ground.
