Face The Day
Where do people turn when there is no one there to listen
What do people do when life’s to hard to bare
Do they cry? Tears in their eyes glisten
Do they feel unloved? Does no one care?
Or are they off in space elsewhere
Are they angry are they sad
Lost a life they never had
Want to cry want to scream
Feel alone no self-esteem
I am still awaiting dawn
The nightmare continues on
To the rhythm of a song
Just wanting to belong
Oh please hear me
Listen to my voice this time
Oh please listen to me
I want to try
To live not die
Are they angry are they sad
Lost a life they never had
Want to cry want to scream
Feel alone no self-esteem
I am still awaiting dawn
The nightmare continues on
To the rhythm of a song
Just wanting to belong
Listen to my voice
You will make your choice
Decisions must be made
Either way I’ve been betrayed
All the things I want say
Never come out the right way
Time to face the day
Time to face the day
It’s time to face today
