In My Life
Pain has been no stranger
At times my only friend
Stroked me gently, broke me down
Convinced I’d never mend
Joy has drove it all away
And shown me how to live
It’s healing waters cleanse the soul
And teach me to forgive
Each path I take leads somewhere new
I thought I’d never go
While trapped inside the bitterness
That seems to love me so
Up or down, in or out
I’ll walk into tomorrow
Head held high for I survived
Through madness, joy and sorrow
