Exhausted

I'm exhausted. So much energy lost and 

at such a high cost. With such high stakes

Just dont know how much more i can take

Can't catch a break. My eyes are heavy

I'm barely awake. But i drag 

my self around through out 

all the madness just to keep myself 

off the ground

I'm still alive. Some how i manage 

to survive. If i could I'd take a dive

But i can't so i struggle to keep it live

Sometimes i pretend that I'm fine

But im not. I have used all 

that I've got. My will is shot. 

I have fought through all the hell 

that has been brought. I see no 

intention Of it stop-ping. 

Just more stress, a high probobility

Of a Cardiac arrest. Yes, i can see 

that i am blessed. Just... A lack of rest 

A whole lot For me to digest. A whole lot

For me to take in. Where do i begin

Becoming a real test. I struggle only

To hold it all in. I can only pretend

I wanna give in. I want to let go. But....

I don't.

I hold on. I continue to go on. No matter what 

the cost is. No matter how exhausted or how much

Energy is lost. 

No matter what the stakes. I will continue to drag

Myself around. Throughout all the madness 

no matter what i face. I will embrace i will fight endlessly

To stay off the ground

I get extremely exhausted on. Certain weekends. Can be unbelievably over whelming and super exhausting...

I know how tiring it all is. Everything is an effort. I think we lose track of ourselves in the everyday grind. We forget what made us happy and took a turn we didn't want to take but forget we can always come back around. Just find the fight my friend, it gives you energy.

Sometimes one can get overwhelmingly out of balance. slow down take that needed break before one does brake. thanks for sharing

Oh I loved it its got a real honest feel to it, just stripping everything bare- thats how i like it
Last two verses i also enjoyed the "More stress and cardiac arrest bit"and you are rounding it all up at the very end which is beautiful, its got this sad sound to it yet it also says I will not give up i will stand my own ground;))
