Struggling to pay my bills
Work gets harder every day
Is there anything to make this better?
As time flies, I come to grasp
how my life could be one day

I could be in a ditch or 6 foot deep
Maybe even living under a broken bridge
Or I'd be in a home with a family of my own
pretending to be content with it

My wish would be to have the loved by my side
Doing my own thing
Yet where - when - what would this be?

The day comes when I'm loving life or hating it
Looking back it seems to be a dream asking myself
"How did I get here?"

Feuds and cancer scares in the past
Everything seems to be alright now
So much frustration to forget
Months go by, memories formed
Tears are shed and, yes, we slept
