What Am I To Do

What is this wretched hacked up life
and why must I live in all this strife
dreams dashed upon shore
the ocean the whore
that keeps spitting up more
what the hell am I to do
when I look around and see all this?
What am I to say...
Am I supposed to save the day?
Lead armys into battle...
Yelling victory and glory be?
Relentless ever on
the ocean never rests
I can only do my best
Its not all in my control
some things are out of reach
sometimes its dark and damp
sometimes I wish I had a lamp
If I slip and fall
at least I know I have reached the ground
Is this then all I have...
To feel the pain, to know I live
to bear the bruise, my scar, my vein?
Then sometimes darkness looks so good
If I could hide away and just keep it at bay
But life dont work that way
reality is, sometimes we slip and fall
the price for each a different call
when the waves are high
on the crest we see reality
slam down with certainty
