The Only Road



Made mistakes will never understand
Trapped in the world of the foreign land.
Not my fault so I make believe
The brink of insanity trying to retrieve.
Can't change the past written in stone
Controlling my life someone alone.
Isn't it funny how I live for then
Lost in the place of thinking again.
Days of joy and complete happiness
Shine back in time before shattered glass.
God has it planned for I will see
Pray for hope and eternity.
May be lost, but not for long
The future will show the really strong.
Breathe a sigh of relief for God is there
This is a must to me who cares.
