Gray Day

the sun is shining bright today
but inside my depression colors it gray
i am worn out, tired and weary
i feel empty, alone and dreary

will there ever be come a day
that I don't so often feel this way?

i have so much to be thankful for
why is it that I always want more?

i have love, but I want romance
i long to laugh and sing and dance

it seems the only excitement i can find
is lived within my imaginative mind

but life is not suppose to be fun
that's what I hear from everyone

so i feel down and lonely and sad
disappointed in myself, utterly mad

i don't know contentment or joy
unless i'm being pursued by some boy?

i want things to be like they were before
when i had so many men at my door

its an addiction they say "you have to submit"
and I guess I haven't cause i feel like shit

i have a man who is good and true
why can't i just be happy, not blue

i make myself sick when I look in the mirror
because its so obvious, it couldn’t be clearer

a girl that though sex and love were the same
who ended up living most of her life in shame

so i sit inside on a sunny day
sleeping and crying my time away
