Welcome To My Hell


Every day is spent imprisoned in my own body I try to change, but nobody ever sees me Wishing things would go my way, but knowing they never will I would like to welcome you to my hell Waking up each morning to see the same, old things Most nights are spent just laying in bed wondering Is this all there is? Is there more to life than to just exist? I've walked this earth for twenty years and still I cannot tell Welcome to my hell This decade in life is supposed to be fun I ask, "How can you have fun when you have absolutely no one?" I'm told that I simply over exaggerate But there comes a time when you no longer want to wait Is it so much to ask to feel alive and real? Welcome to my hell I guess in time, I'll soon find the truth I want to be happy for me, not just for you Mine is a story that is known wide and well Maybe one day soon, I'll escape my own little hell
