 From The Heart

I Wanna Live


I wanna live and they won't let me.

I don't know what I've done but
I wished someone would tell me
Because I'm tired of all the crap
I seem to be going through.

My heart has been broken
And no one seems to care.
My life has been shattered
Broken, and tore.

I can't get no one to
Look at me and see the
Tears that I've cried
For so, so long.

I wanna live and they won't let me
I wanna live and they won't let me
I wanna live and they won't let me
I wanna live and they won't let me
And I don't know, I don't know why.

All I want is peace
All I want is happiness
All I want is joy
All I want is love and care.

I wanna be free from all the pain
I wanna be free from the strain
I wanna be free from this world
I wanna be free and I wanna live.

I want this heartache to go away
I want the sun to shine and brighten
Up my day. I want the world to see me
As I am because I am alive and I wanna live.

I said yes, I wanna live and they won't let me
I try so hard to live and they won't let me
Why come they won't let me live?
All I wanna do is live, live, live.

I wanna live and they won't let me
And I don't know, I don't know why.
