MISERY






MISERY





When our spirits are low and we feel down
We can`t smile but it is so easy to frown,
Our emotions are all over the place
And of happiness there is just no trace.



We can cry at the drop of a hat
But there is nothing surprising in that,
Everything seems to be twice as bad
We feel so exceptionally sad.



Nothing seems to be able to make us smile
And we feel that there is nothing worthwhile,
There is a heaviness in our heart
And this is tearing us apart.



This weight becomes like a physical pain
Why it`s there we just can`t explain,
We only know it`s dragging us down
`Til we feel that we could almost drown.



The pain grows and it becomes black
Consumed by the dark there`s no way back,
The light is fading ever so fast
Misery has got its way at last.
