Another day in the life of a depressed being
My Souls Torment


Light without darkness
Good without evil
Dawn without dusk
Life without death

So many things
I still don't understand
Why we have to bear
Opposition in all things

Perhaps it's meant to be
Sometimes I wish it weren't
I can't say I don't deserve
These burdens put on me

One burden I cannot shake
Constant struggles strain
And wrack my body through
But my soul is hurt the most

Agony and torment ooze out
My conscience stabs my being
This pain I feel inside
Is this what a damned soul feels like

This burden gets worse yet
No one else can help me
My burden is mine to take on
Whether or not I prevail

My journey may seem long
This agony I must bear
Will I win this fight
I really just don't know
