Life's Journey
How does it start?
 The trek down 
 to crazy town...
 I wasn't always like this
 
 As a kid
 I was happy
 laughing, jumping, playing...
 Then I grew up
 
 I began my downwards spiral
 First came anger
 Then came sadness and longing
 Finally came desperation
 
 I became more
 and more angry
 I was mad at everyone;
 All the time
 
 Eventually, I became sad...
 I cried and cried
 Until there were
 No more tears left to shed
 
 All I wanted
 Was my life back...
 Back to when I was happy
 I began to long for those days
 
 Soon after, I began to accept
 That my life was worth nothing
 I wanted a way out of all
 The pain and suffering
 
 I was willing to do anything
 To get away
 From the horrible feelings
 That came every minute of everyday
 
 As a teenager
 I was far from happy...
 I was mad, sad, and desperate
 Finally, I couldn't take it anymore
 
 How does it end?
 The trek down
 To crazy town...
 I wasn't always like this
