It's not Getting Better

It's not Getting Better

What now?

How much worse can it get?

Dare I ask?

I wake up and say- it's a new day!

Only to get kicked in the teeth again

A hundred times a day

I could cry

I could pray

I could wait for tomorrow...yet another day

But I don't want to get back up

Just so something else can knock me back down

It isn't little things anymore

It's not a miracle that I am asking for

But just a little leg up

A little help

A little bit of cooperation from...whoever is up there

Stop dragging me down!

Stop stomping on me!

Get your foot off my neck,

And let me be!

I don't need an excuse to cry

You've given me reason after reason

Thanks for nothing by the way!

I could never say...

Thanks for the air I breathe

Thanks for my health

Thanks for my loved ones

Cause they have all been stripped away from me

Chocking on everyday problems blown way out of proportion

Sick from head to toe, but forcing my body into contortions

Loving my one and only from afar

So what exactly is left to be thankful for?

No time to smell the roses

No more tears to cry

No more precious moments frozen

It's not getting better. That is a lie!
