Life is Difficult, is There Any Hope?

Why Must I Cry?

Nancy Williams-Nettles
Why must I cry?

Why must I cry when I feel like I can't make it.
Why must I cry, when my looks are not enough?
Why must I cry when I think I'm head in the right direction
And the direction is all wrong.

Why must I cry, my heart pounding in despair cause your not there.
Why must I cry, and show the world how weak I really am
Why must I cry, when hanging on seems a waste of time.

Why must I cry, when my pain takes over, and I feel useless?
Why must I cry, when my love life is over and the future is bleak?
Why must I cry? What can I do? Why must I face this world alone?

Why must I cry, that no one cares if I am alive?
Who will wipe the tears and hold me tight?
Why must I cry when the drudge of everyday life
keeps me from being content and happy.

Only you can wipe away my tears.
You are the one who can help me be the best I can be.
You are the one that gives me hope so I won't cry anymore.
I will cry no more, because my directions are clear
I'll keep my head towards heaven
and cry no more.
