Share My Pain

(album: Waylon & Willie IV - 2020)

In the darkness we pray
That the truth comes to light
In the darkness of days
My heart will still fight

I'm still broken-hearted regardless of all the ups and downs we had
It's the life of a martyr, my heart's full of sorrow, tomorrow will soon be the past
Ooh I wonder if I'll ever change
Ooh I wonder if I'll find truth
Yeah we're all standing in the rain
But we can't grow when we're damaged at the root

All alone and I pray that somebody feels like me
Even though I'm afraid I must say it's what I believe
It's hard to focus with all this loneliness in my mind
And when I'm alone again it's the only friend of mine
And I feel like there's nobody left to blame
I just hope somebody out there shares my pain
I just hope somebody out there shares my pain
I just hope somebody out there shares my pain

This loneliness is a lonely place
Most these dudes is mostly fake
They plant the seed so I harvest hate
They locked me up so I guard the gate
It's hard to take, see it in their face
They sit and wait for a heart to break
Divide and conquer, attack and kill
Control with fear and collect the tears
I ain't bitching here, I just spit it real
Hope my peers can feel me now
My hands up and I can't breathe
Hope the cops don't kill me now
So hear me out, I stand up
For the human race by any means
My enemies are anybody
Who ain't a friend but pretend to be
Life's been a dream and a nightmare
All in one, so wake me up
I can take enough, I'll carry burdens
I'll bare your cross, hang me up
Drain the swamps, get all the gators
Spread love, kill all the haters
Get all the people on one accord
Don't feel my pain but I feel yours
I love you

All alone and I pray that somebody feels like me
Even though I'm afraid I must say it's what I believe
It's hard to focus with all this loneliness in my mind
And when I'm alone again it's the only friend of mine
And I feel like there's nobody left to blame
I just hope somebody out there shares my pain
I just hope somebody out there shares my pain
I just hope somebody out there shares my pain
