The life I live, it is not pretty
filled with the emotions of hatred and spite
through this muck and mire I live
Why bother?
I've found someone to help me along
yet this person can not be there always
this life I live, these lives we live,
Why bother?
Twisted and contorted my life is
I, hardly able to know what I'm to do
yet through this life I plod
Why bother?
In the love, the one love, that keeps us together
i find some piece of mind
yet love I can have no longer
Why bother, to live?
The love I want, the love evades me
the sweet, tender caresses of love I need
yet I receive no satisfaction
Why bother, to live?
Mortal life is complete with love
yet this I can never attain
an outcast, a loner
I won't bother, to live.
