"TODAY"

People ain’t like they use to be
especially when you know
you're all you use to be.
Feeling the coldness coming over me,
I opened my eyes so now my heart can see.
Do I let it take over me??
Or do I walk away and let it take over you?
Woke up feeling kinda low today,
woke up thinking somebody died today.
Somebody was born today.
How do I feel?
I ask because I really don’t know
how I feel today.
With every new life there was a loss today
and I shed tears of joy and pain today.
I’m only human so I always think about yesterday.
I sit here and write everyday so that tomorrow
I can start a new day.

If I cried would you wipe my eyes?
If I was thirsty would you fill up my glass?
