We all cry the same...
Have you ever cried until your eyes were left dry
Or until you couldn’t steady your breath inside
To the point that it looked as if you were laughing
But inside you were choking and couldn’t stop gagging
Did you think angry ideas with the sight and sound
And were your jaw bones hurting from biting down
When people asked what’s wrong, even more tears were drained
Feeling that they didn’t and never could feel your pain
Did it make you mad when they wanted to joke
And were you feeling a sudden urge to smoke
Did it feel like you were living to sink
Wanting to drown in a river being driven to drink
And finally did you almost risk your life
Living for the moment, just because it isn’t nice
Until you looked at some baby pictures
Or even little brothers or baby sisters
Did this make you think of better ways
Making you realize that you better pray
Because when praises go up, blessings come down
So tomorrow is going to be a better day...
Or until you couldn’t steady your breath inside
To the point that it looked as if you were laughing
But inside you were choking and couldn’t stop gagging
Did you think angry ideas with the sight and sound
And were your jaw bones hurting from biting down
When people asked what’s wrong, even more tears were drained
Feeling that they didn’t and never could feel your pain
Did it make you mad when they wanted to joke
And were you feeling a sudden urge to smoke
Did it feel like you were living to sink
Wanting to drown in a river being driven to drink
And finally did you almost risk your life
Living for the moment, just because it isn’t nice
Until you looked at some baby pictures
Or even little brothers or baby sisters
Did this make you think of better ways
Making you realize that you better pray
Because when praises go up, blessings come down
So tomorrow is going to be a better day...
