Such Is Life I Suppose

A divorce between father and mother 'Cause daddy says that he loves another So battle is raging and nothing less And the son says he'll sell his religion to fix this mess But they don't care, no they don't care
And Son says he wishes he could speak his brain 'Cause all his love has been washed away by the rain Even though Mother and Father say that they love him They say still love him So they send him to college to get some more knowledge And to learn how to work so he can put life on hold even longer And he'll make some more friends who are nothing but actors They'll say "we'll live thru this life and thru ever after 'Cause we're angels"
Yes, they're angels And they'd sell off their halos for any fortune And they'd sell off their wings to gain any fame But then on Sunday they'd fall to their knees and they'd say "God forgive us, forgive us please" They'll be so repentant in all of their ways They'll be so repentant... Until Monday
And I shout that fakes are all that is left They'll say "God bless you" and "God damn you" in the same breath I've tried to keep it in, but now I just can't hold it Because snakes are all that is left in the pulpit

Life is a constant stuggle with nothing but tests and obstacles and it really sucks. To tell you the truth I understand what you are feeling and can only hope to find a way to make it through without being forced to be someone i am not.
Incredible write.
Take Care,
