Being let down
feeling lowdown
hurting my heart
with their sneers and frowns
hoping for understanding
wishing for a way out
I keep falling when im standing
trying my best to reach my dream
searching for a life unknown
once thought nothing could stop me
but all that courage is gone
looking for something more
only to lose so much
reaching out to the one i love
only to lose touch
i pray to have a better life
which i will posses one day
but to live in peace and harmony
seems so far away
Being let down feeling lowdown
i cant deny the pain
of getting back my dreams
and feeling complete again
i hope to lose this emptiness in
my memories or my thoughts
hoping to erase the lost battles that I fought
Being let down
feeling lowdown
racing through this world
searching for
that dream driven
little girl
who in her own way
believed in the impossible
Its the start of my new day
