Alone
“Alone”
In the darkness
Noone’s here
My sadness
Something I can’t share
Love
Something I don’t know about
Only from above
Only from the one who can save
But, on earth….
I’m all alone
What am I worth?
I take my walk alone
Alone

Crazy
“Crazy”
Is it just me?
Or am I just crazy?
Where did I go?
That I don’t know
Alone in the darkness
Nothing but sadness
Crying dirty tears
It seems like my eyes never clear
No hope!
Nope
No faith!
Can’t take
No happiness!
Nothing but sadness
No love!
I know it’s only coming from above
No life
No life
Am I crazy?

The Mother
“The Mother”
She’s known as the mother
But, she doesn’t act like a mother
No love
No love
You’ll never see her show it
Only her madness
Never hugs
Never kisses
Never loves
Never
Noone knows what she needs to make her happy
She’s a careless and unhappy woman
She only has time for herself
No second thoughts about others
The mother
I’ve heard of her
But, where is she?
The real mother?

With All My Heart
I love you with all my heart
And can’t noone ever tear us apart
You’re special to me
And I love the fact that it’s just you and me
You’re part of my soul and heart
And I knew I would fall in love from the start
You’re true love
You showed me the meaning of love
With all my heart
I care for you
With all my heart
I’ll cry for you
From the bottom of my heart
I love you! !
With all my heart

Run Away
Run Away
Her eyes were teared
With her mother she wanted to stay
Leaving her alone with some stranger she feared
Run away
She kissed her mother goodbye
And now it was time for her to say goodbye
She let out a helpless cry
And now she was waving goodbye
Run away
She can’t accept why she had to leave
Knowing the fact that her mother was about to get raped
To herself she did not want to conceive
Far in the distance she could hear her mother getting raped
Run away

Cowgirls
Cowgirls
Cowgirls are cow crazy
They can ride for a wild bunch of girls
They ride so much that the cows are getting lazy
Cowgirls, cowgirls, cowgirls
The girls could ride for days
And when it comes to working they’ll be on their way
Those tough cowgirls are tougher than the boys
The boys are so jealous that they get annoyed
But, the girls don’t care because they know they were born to do what they do
Don’t you wish you were a crazy tough cowgirl, too?
And I’m recommending this to the boys, too! ! !

Why family?
WHY DOES IT HAVE TO BE the FAMILY THAT DISREPECTS YOU?
WHY DOES IT HAVE TO BE the FAMILY WHO TALK ABOUT YOU BEHIND YOUR BACK?
WHY DOES IT HAVE TO BE THE FAMILY WHO CLOSES THE DOOR WHEN YOU NEED SOMEONE TO TALK TO?
WHY IS IT THE FAMILY WHO COULD CARE LESS ABOUT YOU?
WHY IS IT THE FAMILY who tell others your buisness?
Why does the family try to put you down?
Why does the family act the way they do towards one another?
Why does the family act like they’re not your family?
Why can’t the family just be family?

Sorrow
“Sorrow”
I have so much sorrow
I really don’t care if there’ll be a tomorrow
I’m all alone in this abnormal world
I can’t see my life ahead because it’s such a blur
My sorrow is something normal in my life
I don’t care if I’ll be a wife
I love my life but, I hate my life
I don’t care about what I do
I don’t care about trying something new
My whole life is based on sorrow
I never think about happiness
It’s all because I can do nothing else but stress
I hate the fact that my life is such a mess
Sorrow
I hate that word! !
