What's That They Say?

Image source:  mojado.com

Days of anger
Days of pain
What's that they say
That I'm insane
If that's true
Then who are you
Someone whose story
I wish I knew

Days of sadness
Lies and fear
What's that you say
Someone might hear
What has been hidden
From everyone's view
That mine is the story
I wish I knew

  4. Brian- Sorry for taking you back to a dark place in your life. It's not a place I want any personal experience with.

    Nicky- Thank you!

    Hilary- Thanks! Not a pleasant place to be I would imagine.
