Tomorrow's Sorrow

By PointlessX

How can I live tomorrow
If I can't forget yesterday
How can I get up today
When I know what's in store for tomorrow
How can I ever be happy
If I can never forget the sorrow.

How can I enjoy being alone
If I don't like the person I'm alone with
Grief is all I know
Happiness must be a myth.

How can I light tomorrow with today
If all my matches are broken
How can I let you in
When only lies have been spoken.

How can i look forward to anything
When I've only been let down
How can I smile though my heart is breaking
When I only know how to frown.

How can I go on
If I dont know where to go
And I don't know where I am
My only love is now my foe
And it's all because of him.

How can I move forward
When I'm constantly looking back
How can I love myself
When self-esteem
Is the number one thing I lack.

How can I look outside
When I hate whats with in
But I can't give up
Or else he'll win.

How can I live tomorrow
If I can't forget yesterday
How can I get up today
When I know what's in store for tomorrow
How can I ever be happy
If I can never forget the sorrow.
