Life


Everday you wake up 

The same old thing

Pain here and sadness there

A chain unbroken 

 

This is my life 

Yet not one i want 

So i get the chain and i pull it 

Nothing but more pain

 

I pull that chain every day

More pain every day 

Until it moves

Then there's less pain 

 

I persist 

Over and over again

I keep persisting 

Till it's all changed

You persist to win, that's how you play the game of life.
