Another Day

And maybe for this moment in time

The question will remain mine

Is life worth another day?

Can I live in any other way?

My soul has been destroyed

With the memories I try to avoid

But they seem to find the open doors

Making it impossible to ignore

Racing through my mind

I can see but I'm so blind

To what I'm really made of

I'm just so full of love

But in myself I see hate

I see nothing so great

Feeling so close to letting go

Getting rid of the pain I used to know

Is life worth another day?

My scars they will stay

They remind me of the pain

How I used to bleed from every vein

The bottle of pills have opened

My soul has broken

I don't know if I can hang on

Thoughts of being gone

Kill me from the inside

I always try to hide

But there's nothing but an empty field

People have made it to the other side being healed

But I'm ready to sit in the grass

And just let my life pass

To wait for another day

Where I don't have to stay

I finally can give

To know it was impossible to live

Is life worth another day?

There's nothing more to say

Laying down as I drift to sleep

The memories and pain I will keep

Letting them take me out of Hell

Because every day I fell

Life is worth another day

But I don't have the strength to stay

So all of my goodbyes I'll say

Because for some life isn't worth another day.
