This Life of Mine


My life is pretty crazy
I just want you to know
It's like jumping off the Eiffel Tower
The ground so far below
I never meant to hurt you
I never meant to lie
You weren't supposed to hear me
all those nights I cried

My life is pretty messed up
Sometimes I wanna die
A light that's in the darkness;
all that keeps me alive

My life is pretty insane
I get so overstressed
I'm trying hard to find a way
Out of this crazy mess
My life, it's so amazing
My dreams sometimes come true
I have to work so hard sometimes
Just to make it through
Though my heart may get broken
Though dry tears may stain my face
Though the times get so weary
I may just win the race

I don't know what the prize will be
Maybe life will get much better
You know my life is crazy
But that's what makes me stronger.
