Why Ask Why

I rise above the anger

Though the truth is what I hear

I'm innocent, torn by mistakes

And yet you don't care

If you could understand that there's a person here inside

If you would realize that you too make mistakes in life

I'm not an angel, nor your foe

You're not an angel, nor blessed soul

There's got to be a reason

God chose to harp on this

there's got to be a lesson

Why I am not dismissed

As an angel I was tormented

But was that really worse

I wonder now if someone cares

As I listen to your words

Around the corner, around the way

Rumors haunt me as I play

Though you're not friends

Though i act tough

I hope both of us learn our lessons in the end

Mine of trust, and truth

Yours of the pain you inflict

Mine of self hurt, and rejection

Your of the cruelness and cold you send

I'll forgive you one day

For what you've done

You'll forget me someway

Get bored, move on

Though hope is just a distant star

I hope I'm not alone

Do I live to soak-up all the pain?

Do you live for the pain you've shown?

I ask god why as I gaze at the stars

With every tear I cry

But a silly answer in my heart

Brings me to the truth

As I look up with a sorrowfull sigh

Why oh lord, why ask why?
