A World of Hurt

I'm tired of being shut down
Pushed around and shoved out
I need to know why you treat me this way
I want to know what this is all about

You yell and you scream
Until the walls cave in
The pain you deliver is so great
Makes my head spin

Do I really deserve
The harsh reality that seems to be thrown in my face
The cuts and bruises on my heart
Have replaced your warm embrace

It's easy
To confront my friends with a smile
Meanwhile in this dark pit
I'll wonder if my life is worthwhile

It seems that day after day
The battles I fight are the same
The effects on me are endless
Yet you think its pointless, you claim

Sometimes I wonder if I drifted off into a cloud
Would my problems all go away
Or will my life be characterized
By fear and disarray

I wish someone would just whisk me away
Show me the way to peace
Allow me to open up and help me show
That there is love that is eager to be released
